early day motion إعلان طلب التماس Explanation: Early day motion (EDM) is a colloquial term for a notice of motion given by a Member for which no date has been fixed for debate. EDMs exist to allow Members to put on record their opinion on a subject and canvass support for it from fellow Members. In effect, the primary function of an EDM is to form a kind of petition that MPs can sign. http://www.parliament.uk/about_commons/early_day_motions.cfm... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 32 mins (2007-03-06 04:50:59 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- إعلان طلب/التماس |

early day motion طلب الاقتراع او التصويت لمشروع مقدم من عضو برلمانى Explanation: The tabling of an EDM is a device to draw attention to an issue and to elicit support for it by inviting other MPs to add their signatures: an MP would not expect their EDM to be debated. MPs can also table amendments to existing EDMs. EDMs, amendments and names of signatories are circulated in the Vote Bundle, the daily working papers of the House of Commons. EDMs can often attract a great deal of publicity, and many people regard them as a gauge of opinion. Although the majority of EDMs are never considered for debate, the group of EDMs known as 'prayers' may be debated. Prayers are motions to annul or revoke Statutory Instruments, and include the form of words 'that an Humble Address be presented to Her Majesty, praying that the [title of legislation], a copy of which was laid before this House on [date], be annulled.' That is the sheet form of EDM Factsheet P3 Early Day Motions It would help greatly to ensure that Factsheets fulfil their purpose if users would fill in and return this brief pre-addressed questionnaire, or email a response. Negative responses can be as useful as positive. For your purposes, did you find this Factsheet 1. Very useful Fairly useful Not much use 2. Too long The right length Too short 3. Clear Not always clear Rather unclear Any comments?
