A standing rule is a rule that relates to the details of the administration of a society and which can be adopted or changed the same way as any other act of the deliberative assembly.[1] Standing rules can be suspended by a majority vote for the duration of the session, but not for longer.[2] Examples of standing rules include wearing name badges, signing a guest register, or using recording devices.
