The Maryland General Assembly Consent Calendar, also known as Question 6, was on the November 7, 1972 ballot in Maryland as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment, where it was approved. The measure provided that the general assembly may adopt a "consent calendar" procedure that permitted bills to be read and voted upon as a single group on the second and third readings. The measure also required that the procedure provided the membership with reasonable notice and an opportunity to object.^[1]
