This is similar to a motion to table,
but it specifies a time when the matter will next be considered.
Unlike the motion to table, this calls for the motion to come back
to the group's consideration automatically, without another vote
by the body. It can be used when the group is not ready to make
a decision on a motion, but needs to do so by a certain time, or
when a decision must be delayed until a certain event has happened
or certain information has been recieved.
NOTE: Certain actions, like a bylaw amendment,
must, by our rules, be HELD OVER until a later meeting, and
may not be acted upon the first time they are introduced. Since
this hold over is required by our rules, no motion to postpone
is required.
Here's how it works:
