Is Previous Question out of order when another member has the floor?

The principle surrounding the motion "Previous Question" indicates that it is intended to close debate and bring a vote on the topic at hand. This motion can only be introduced when no other member is speaking. If another member has the floor and is currently engaged in discussion, it would create disruption and confusion to introduce the motion at that moment.

Introducing the motion while another member is speaking disrupts the flow of the meeting and disrespects the established norms of order and decorum during discussions. This orderly conduct is essential for maintaining respect and enabling all members to have their voices heard. Therefore, it stands that “Previous Question” is absolutely out of order whenever another member has the floor, highlighting the importance of ensuring that discussions are clear and orderly.
