General Consent

General consent is an agreement reached by all participants in a meeting without the need for formal voting or detailed discussion. It implies unanimous approval or acceptance of a proposal, motion, or decision, often signaled by a lack of objections or opposition. General consent is commonly used for routine or uncontroversial matters in meetings, streamlining the decision-making process and saving time. It relies on the assumption that if no one voices dissent or concerns, the proposal is accepted by the entire group.
