WHAT DOES DIVISION LOBBY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

division lobby

Division of the assembly

In parliamentary procedure, a division of the assembly is a voting method in which the members of the assembly take a rising vote or go to different parts of the chamber, literally dividing into groups indicating a vote in favour of or in opposition to a motion on the floor. In several assemblies, a division bell is rung when a division of the assembly is happening, in order to alert members that they are asked to take part. A division of the assembly is often undertaken upon a motion. It can be contrasted with voice voting and electronic voting. This was the method used to decide motions in the Roman Senate.
