ISLAMABAD: As the crucial session of the National Assembly is about to begin to decide the fate of Prime Minister Imran Kahan, here is everything to need to know about the procedure for voting on the no-confidence motion in the House.

As per the NA rules, before the voting commences, the speaker directs that the bells be rung for five minutes to enable members not present in the Chamber to be present.

Soon after the bells stop ringing, all the entrances to the lobby shall be locked and the assembly staff posted at each entrance will not allow any entry or exit through those entrances until the voting has concluded.

Then, the speaker reads out the resolution before the assembly and asks the members who wish to vote in favour of the resolution to pass in single file through the entrance where tellers shall be posted to record the votes.

On reaching the desk of the tellers, each member shall, in turn, call out the division number allotted to him under the rules. The tellers shall then mark off his number on the division list simultaneously calling out the name of the member.

In order to ensure that his vote has been properly recorded, the member shall not move off until he has clearly heard the teller call out his name. After a member has recorded his vote, he shall not return to the chamber until bells are rung under paragraph 3.

When the speaker finds that all the members who wished to vote have recorded their votes, he shall announce that the voting has concluded.

Thereupon the secretary shall cause the division list to be collected, count the recorded votes and present the result of the count to the speaker.

The speaker shall then direct that the bells be rung for two minutes to enable the members to return to the chamber. As the bells stop ringing, the speaker shall announce the result to the assembly.
