The minutes are a record of the proceedings of the meeting. A motion needs to be moved to accept the minutes and then seconded to be accepted as a true record of the meeting. The minutes do not need to be read but each member can have a copy. Unless someone objects then the minutes are accepted as a true and proper record of the last meeting. A motion to precede the acceptance motion can be put if a ,member believes the minutes do not reflect a true and proper record.

Is seconded a word?

Yes. Most commonly this word arises in describing a formal meeting where a motion has been made. For a motion to be formally considered, another individual must express support for its consideration. This is done by saying, "I second that motion." Once that stage has occurred, the motion is described as seconded. For example, "Ms. Wilson has seconded the motion to adjourn which must be voted on immediately in accordance with Robert's Rules of Order." The word less commonly is encountered when discussing the ranking of things. If an item is put in second place, it may be said to have been "seconded." In that case it can also be an adjective, "The seconded item was taken off of the winner's pedestal." There are other variations of usage, but most are related to these two examples.

How do you withdraw a motion made and seconded?

To withdraw a motion that has been made and seconded, the person who made the motion must request to withdraw it, typically by saying, "I withdraw my motion."

Always check the specific rules of the governing body or organization, as procedures may vary.
