Oh, you know what, there may be a cultural language issue going on here.

In the US parliamentary procedure, to table a motion means to take a current motion and table (suspend) it to the next meeting.

I see by Wikipedia that in the UK to table a motion can mean to bring a motion up for consideration (for the first time).

So that may be where the confusion lies. Smiley
