What must a member do to call another member out of order?

To call another member out of order, a person can do so without gaining recognition from the chair. This practice is based on the principle that any member has the right to point out improper behavior or a violation of rules during a meeting. Having the ability to call someone out of order helps maintain order and adherence to parliamentary procedure.

In a meeting, the flow of discussion is typically governed by the chair's authority, as they facilitate the proceedings. However, all members share an obligation to uphold the rules of order, which allows them to intervene when necessary, even without prior acknowledgment from the chair. This is essential for ensuring that the meeting remains orderly and that members adhere to rules and protocols.

In contrast, the other options involve requesting permission or requiring recognition from the chair, which can slow down the meeting process and may not effectively address an immediate issue of order. It's important for members to feel empowered to speak up about breaches of conduct without excessive procedural constraints, thus fostering a respectful and orderly meeting environment.
