se pone a consideración el siguiente punto del orden del día
the following order of business on the agenda shall be open for discussion


Explanation:
they will discuss it or comment on it....I would use agenda here...in board meetings etc., that is usually the term...
The first order of business on the agenda...is the wording in a sentence

PAST TENSE REPORTED SPEECH

you don\'t have to say order of business on the agenda but that\'s the official way..you can just say, the next order of business or the next item ont he agenda...but watch those REPORTING verbs
