When a meeting decides that a matter should lie on the table, it means that the matter should
be discussed immediately
be discussed at the next meeting
not be discussed at all
be discussed at the executive level
Correct answer is C
If a proposal or motion is laid on the table, it is essentially a euphemism, meaning that ; nothing further will be done in this matter" or "we are not going to do anything about this" or "we refuse the petition"
