A report agenda is a list of business that is presented to a group for information only, rather than for a vote. It may include items that will be voted on in the future. This is different from a debate agenda, which is a list of business that is awaiting a vote and is open for discussion. A report agenda is like a report card, where you get information about your progress, but you don't get graded on it yet.
A report agenda is a list of business that is presented to a deliberative assembly for information only, rather than for its vote. It may include items that will be voted on in the future. This is similar to a report calendar, which is a list of business that is coming before a deliberative assembly for information only.
For example, a company may present a report agenda to its board of directors, outlining the progress of various projects and initiatives. The board may review the report and ask questions, but they are not required to take any action on the items presented.
In parliamentary law, a report agenda is also known as a calendar of business. It is different from the action calendar, which lists business awaiting a deliberative assembly's vote, and the consent calendar, which lists business that is not expected to be substantially opposed and is scheduled for a vote without debate.
