Which officer is primarily responsible for ensuring proper parliamentary procedure during meetings?

• A. Treasurer
• B. Parliamentarian
• C. Historian
• D. Event Chair

Answer: (B)

Parliamentary procedure sets the framework for how meetings are run, including how motions are made, debated, and voted on. The officer who ensures this framework is followed is the Parliamentarian. They know the rules well and guide the meeting by advising the presiding officer on procedure, ruling on points of order, and helping determine when motions are in order or how amendments should be handled. This keeps the process fair, orderly, and efficient. The other roles focus on different duties: the Treasurer handles finances, the Historian records events, and the Event Chair coordinates activities and logistics.
