Artikel 108 Constitutie van de Postunie van de Staten van het Amerikaanse Werelddeel, Spanje en Portugal

Article 108 Submission and Consideration of Proposals 1 Proposals submitted in accordance with Article 125 of these Regulations shall serve as the basis for Congress debates. 2 In principle, each proposal shall have a single purpose and shall contain only amendments related thereto. 3 However, amendments may be introduced orally or in writing at any time during the discussion of a particular issue. 4 In cases of multiple proposals in regard to a single issue, the Chairman shall determine the order of discussion, starting, in principle, with the proposal that departs furthest from the original text or that entails the most radical change. 5 If a proposal can be subdivided into several parts, each part may be considered and voted on separately with the consent of the orginator or the Congress. 6 Amendments accepted by the delegation presenting the original proposal shall be immediately incorporated into the text of the proposal. Amendments that are not accepted shall be handled according to the rule established in paragraph 4 above as regards the order of their discussion. 7 The procedure described in paragraph 6 above shall also apply in cases of several amendments presented in connection with a single proposal. 8 Any proposal withdrawn at a plenary session may be resubmitted by another delegation. Moreover, in the event of the approval and acceptance of an amendment to a proposal by the country or territory submitting the original proposal, another member country or territory may resubmit the original version of the proposal. 9 If a proposal has been accepted or rejected by the Congress, it may be re-examined by the same Congress only if the motion for reconsideration is supported by at least three delegations and approved by two thirds of the member countries or territories present and voting. 10 Any proposal that could entail substantial expenditures by the Union must be accompanied by an estimate of its financial consequences, prepared in consultation with the General Secretariat by the member country or territory that has drafted it, for the purpose of determining the financial resources needed for its implementation.
