What should a member do to bring a pending question to an immediate vote?

To bring a pending question to an immediate vote, a member should move to the previous question. This motion is a formal request to stop further debate on the matter currently being discussed and proceed directly to a vote. It effectively limits discussion and allows the assembly to make a decision without any additional arguments or comments.

Using this motion is essential in situations where members feel that enough has been said and that it is time for the assembly to make a decision. It typically requires a second and can often be adopted by a majority vote.

The other options, although related to the parliamentary procedure, do not serve the purpose of bringing a question to an immediate vote. For instance, calling for a point of order addresses a procedural issue rather than advancing the matter to a vote. Requesting a division pertains to verifying a vote result and does not initiate an immediate vote. Tabling a motion puts it aside for consideration at a later time rather than accelerating the process to a vote.
