quasi committee of the whole

Read a random definition: cyberterrorism

A quick definition of quasi committee of the whole:

A committee is a group of people who work together to investigate, discuss, and make decisions about a specific topic or issue. There are many different types of committees, such as those that oversee finances, plan events, or create policies. Sometimes, a committee is made up of all the members of a larger group, and this is called a committee of the whole. A quasi committee of the whole is a special type of committee where the regular leader of the larger group still presides over the committee.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A special committee that comprises all the members of a deliberative assembly who are present, over which the regular chair of the assembly presides.

Example: A city council meeting may resolve itself into a quasi committee of the whole to discuss a complex issue, such as a proposed zoning change. During this time, the regular chair of the council will preside over the meeting, but the committee will have greater procedural flexibility than the full council.

Explanation: The example illustrates how a quasi committee of the whole functions in a deliberative assembly. By allowing all members to participate in the discussion, the committee can take advantage of the expertise and perspectives of a larger group. The regular chair of the assembly presides to maintain order and ensure that the committee follows the assembly's rules and procedures.
