Previous notice is a verbal or written announcement of intent to cancel business that was previously passed. It is not associated with which of the following?

• A. Standing Rules
• B. Bylaws
• C. Constitution
• D. Minutes

Answer: (A)

Previous notice means announcing in advance the intent to rescind or amend a motion that has already been adopted, so members have time to consider the proposed change. The source of this requirement is usually the organization's bylaws or constitution, which set when and how such notice must be given, and the minutes can show whether that notice was provided. Standing rules, however, are the day-to-day procedural rules for running meetings and aren’t where notice requirements for canceling previously passed business are typically defined. So previous notice isn’t associated with standing rules, while it is commonly tied to bylaws or the constitution, with the minutes reflecting the notice given.
