What is the official book of parliamentary procedure?

• A. Robert's Rules of Order
• B. Parliamentary Procedure Guide
• C. The Rules of Order
• D. Parliamentary Code

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is identifying the standard reference used to conduct meetings with formal procedures. Robert's Rules of Order is the official guide for parliamentary procedure, detailing how motions are made, debated, amended, and voted on, and outlining roles and steps for running meetings fairly and efficiently. It has been the widely adopted authority for organizations from clubs to governmental bodies, with revised editions that keep the rules current. The other titles aren’t recognized as the official standard, so they don’t carry the same authority or specificity for procedural rules.
