Proposals (Draft Resolutions)

Article 38

In each committee no more than two (2) proposals per delegation shall initially be presented. Proposals shall be presented in writing to the Rapporteur of the Committee. In order for a proposal to be accepted for consideration, it must conform with the following specifications:

  1. The proposal must deal specifically with a topic on the agenda of the committee in question;
  2. The proposal must conform to the stylistic standards of the Model OAS General Assembly;
  3. The proposal must bear the signatures of five (5) delegates representing five (5) delegations, other than the proponent's, indicating commitment to support the proposal as originally presented.

No delegation may initially present more than one proposal at the second committee session. This provision does not apply, however, to proposals, which may originate in the course of debate of a given topic or within working groups.

Article 39

Once debate has been initiated on a topic, delegates may move to consider specific proposals in its regard. A proposal may not be debated until copies have been distributed. Each delegation shall receive one copy of each proposal.
