When can a member call for a division of the assembly?

A member can call for a division of the assembly when a voice vote is inconclusive because this action is used to ensure that the intent of the vote is accurately recorded. When the result of a voice vote is unclear and members are unsure of whether the motion passed or failed, a division allows for a more precise method of voting, such as a count or show of hands, to confirm the outcome.

In meetings, maintaining clarity in decision-making is crucial for effective governance, and calling for a division ensures that all members' voices are counted fairly and distinctly when there is doubt about the results. This practice helps promote transparency and accountability in the decision-making process.

The other choices do not align with the purpose of calling for a division. Extending debate, closing a meeting, or amending a motion are governed by different rules and procedures within parliamentary practice, which do not involve questioning the clarity of a voice vote.
