Bring and Buy, a i te mea kua oti nei te peita o to tatou ruuma, ki toku whakaaro e tika ana, me whakatikatika te ahuatanga ki nga kapu me nga hoeha, na te mea kei te tino he rawa. He Reo: Tera hoki nga tauera. He Reo Ano: Hei whakapau moni noa iho nga tauera. He Reo Ano: E tika ana me whakapau e tatou nga moni hei awhina i te Ropu concert. Tiamana: Kia tau te rangimarie. He take tino pai tau e Mrs R. mo te ahuatanga o nga kapu me nga hoeha, a tera hoki kei te tika te take o te ahuatanga o te hoko mai i etahi tauera totika. Ka taea ranei e koe te whakakaupapa o tetahi motini. Mrs B.: Ae e te tiamana, ka motini ahau i tera me whakamana te kaitiaki moni ki te whakapau i te moni kaua e neke atu i te £5 toru Taihana, o ko te toenga o nga moni me whakapau hei hoko tauera. Mrs O.: E tautoko ana ahau i te motini. Tiamana: Kei te tuwhera inaianei te motini kia whiriwhiria. Mrs N.: E te tiamana he whakapau moni kore take te hoko tauera mai, he mama noa iho te mahi tauera ki te peke paraoa. Mrs V.: He tino take poauau te hoko tauera mai, he pai ke te waiho i te ahua ano e riro nei ma tena ma tena e hari mai he tauera. Mrs T.: Kei te nui noa atu nga huarahi hei whakapaunga i a tatou moni, a he nui rawa te utu o nga tauera. Kei te tika te hoko mai i nga kapu me nga hoeha, engari kaua hei whakapaua he moni hei hoko tauera. Tiamana: E Mrs T. mau pea hei motini he menemana me whakamana te kaitiaki moni ki te hoko mei i nga kapu me nga hoeha anake. A tera pea ma te hekeretari e panui mai te motini a kei reira koe motini ai i te menemana. Hekeretari: Kua motinitia e Mrs R.

They are a disgrace! Voice: And the tea-towels …. Voice: Tea-towels are a waste of money … Voice: We ought to spend the money to help the Concert Party …. Chairman: Order, please. Mrs R., that is a very good suggestion about the cups and saucers, and there is something to be said for buying some good tea-towels. Would you care to put your suggestion in the form of a motion. *A motion must be moved by one person and seconded by another. It is then open to discussion, each person speaking only ONCE. The MOVER may speak in reply to all the other arguments just before the vote is taken. The Chairman reads the MOTION alou, and takes the vote.Mrs R.: Yes, Madam Chairman. I move that the Treasurer be allowed to spend up to £5 to buy three dozen cups and saucers, and that any money over be spent on tea-towels. Mrs O.: I second that. Chairman: The motion is now open to discussion. Mrs N.: Madam Chairman, the tea-towels are a waste of money. We could easily make some out of flour bags. Mrs V.: It is ridiculous to buy tea-towels. We can take it in turns to provide them, just as we always have. Mrs T.: We need money for so many things, and tea-towels are a luxury. We need the cups and saucers, but shouldn't spend any money on tea-towels. Chairman: Mrs T., would you care to make an amendment to the motion that would just allow the treasurer to buy cups and saucers? Perhaps the Secretary would read the motion through, and then you could move an amendment. Secretary: It has been moved by Mrs R. and seconded by Mrs O. ‘That the Treasurer be allowed to spend up to £5 to buy three dozen cups and saucers, and that any money over be spent on tea-towels.’ †An AMENDMENT is an alteration to a MOTION. An AMENDMENT must be moved and seconded, but this can only be done by people who have not taken part in the discussion on the MOTION. An AMENDMENT must not cancel out the original intention of a MOTION.Mrs T.: I should like to move an amendment, that the words ‘and that any money over be spent on tea-towels' be deleted. Mrs B.: I second that.
