F. DECORUM: All delegates are expected to maintain decorum, i.e. appropriate behavior, during all sessions. Delegates behaving inappropriately are subject to disciplinary action by presiding officers and the CCE staff. The Delegate Code of Conduct defines further expectations for appropriate delegate behavior.

II. General Assembly (GA) sessions:

A. Docket: the docket for GA sessions shall be determined by the CCE staff based on rankings of resolutions by committees. The docket for each GA session is only amended in extraordinary circumstances with the permission of the CCE staff and presiding officers (the chairs). Delegates who wish to amend the docket (i.e. reschedule the debate on a resolution) should bring their concerns to the presiding officers before moving to amend the docket.

20

B. Resolutions: a. The content of resolutions should conform to the expectations laid out by

the CCE staff in the Delegate Manual. b. Resolutions may only be amended during GA committee sessions.

C. Presentations: a. The patrons of each resolution are responsible for presenting their

c. Patrons may invoke Patron’s Rights only when a speaker in debate has offered factually incorrect information about the text of their resolution. Patron’s Rights allows the patrons ten seconds of uninterrupted speaking time to correct the factual error. Patrons must wait until the speaker has concluded their remarks before exercising these rights.

D. Debate: a. GA Delegates may speak when recognized by the chair. Delegates’ remarks

must be relevant to the items on the agenda at any given time. b. Once recognized, delegates must identify themselves to the session with

SCRIPT FOR CCE MUN DEBATE BY TUCKER COWDEN, MHMS

*Outside of this guide, consult additional TN YMCA CCE supplements and Robert’s Rules ofOrder*Script is written with the assumption of more than one patron for the resolution/bill. Ifthere is only one presenting patron, change statements to the singular (i.e. “Does thePatron” instead of “Do the Patrons”).

OVERVIEW

Model UN (MUN) debate should be seen in the context of the actual United Nations General Assembly, where delegates speak directly on behalf of the governments of the nations they represent and the items debated are called resolutions. Because of this setting, MUN delegates should know their nation’s stance on important world issues and approach them as that country’s government would (even if the delegates do not agree with that approach). This applies especially to the resolution that you are presenting. It should address not only an issue that the delegates think is important, but one that the country’s government thinks is important and would actually present to the UN. Also, although the event is called “Model UN,” speakers referring to the body should not say that “the Model UN” should do such-and-such. You are to be completely in character, acting as if Model UN were the actual United Nations (so refer to the conference as “the UN” or “the United Nations”).

ASKING TECHNICAL QUESTIONS (after being recognized by the chair)

Speaker: [States Name, States Country, States One Question (must be one that merits a response of yes, no, a number, a definition, or a short, expository rather than persuasive answer) (the question is directed to the presenting delegates)]

CON/PRO DEBATE (after being recognized)

*Delegates may take one or two of the three actions listed below (ask questions, speak tothe floor, yield time to another delegate), but may not only yield time to another delegate(you can only ask questions or only speak, but cannot only yield time).Speaker: (States Name, States Country) and…

24

• To Ask A Series of QuestionsSpeaker: Do the Patrons yield to a possible series of questions? (Not: “a series of possiblequestions,” or “a question.”)Chair: They do so yieldSpeaker: (To Patrons) (Asks Questions and receives answers for up to two minutes,depending on the committee/GA/plenary’s time structure).*It is important to note that questions asked as a Con speech should seek to criticize, or atleast show skepticism for, the given resolution. Those asked as a Pro speech should do theopposite, emphasizing the positive aspects of the resolution.

• To Address the AssemblySpeaker: May I address the floor?Chair: That is your right.Speaker: (Speaks to fellow delegates, not the patrons, for the allotted amount of timeeither in favor of (pro speech) or against (con speech) the resolution).*You should never use the words “Con” or “Pro” in your speech unless referring to “aprevious con speaker,” etc. Con and Pro are not nouns or verbs that can be used to showyour support or dislike of a resolution (so do not say “I con this resolution”).

• To Yield Remaining time after one of the above to a fellow delegate:Speaker: May I yield the remainder of my time to a fellow delegate?Chair: That is your right. Please specify a delegate.Speaker: [Names the delegate to be yielded to (refer to him/her by country] (Takes firstaction)*Delegates being yielded to should have the same opinion (pro or con) on the resolution asthe speakers that yield to them.

MOTIONS(must be made before the last con speech)

Speaker: (Shouts) Motion! Chair: Rise and state your motion. Speaker: (States Name, States Country, States Motion—see table of motions in delegate manual) Chair: [Takes it from there (decides if the motion is in order or not, asks for a second to the motion, and conducts a vote, usually by voice acclamation)]
