In my experience it is common practice for the presenter of a report to a meeting, at the the end of discussions then says ” I move that the report be accepted”. It is then seconded by another person and put to the vote.

For example, this procedure is followed by the Treasurer of our Probus Club when he presents the current financial status at the monthly general of members.

My understanding is this: A person (secretary or treasurer) cannot move that the report they have just presented be accepted. Please let me know of the proper procedure.

thanks
