raise a question of privilege

Read a random definition: drunk

A quick definition of raise a question of privilege:

Raising a question of privilege means asking the meeting or the chair to consider a matter that is important and urgent. It is a way to bring attention to an issue that needs to be addressed immediately. For example, if someone is being disruptive or if there is a safety concern, a question of privilege can be raised to address the situation. A question of privilege is different from a regular question, which is a query directed to a witness.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: To offer a question of privilege to be considered by the meeting or ruled on by the chair. A question of privilege is a request made by a member of a meeting or assembly to address an urgent matter that affects their rights or privileges as a member.

Example: During a meeting, a member may raise a question of privilege to request a break due to a medical emergency or to address a violation of their rights as a member, such as being interrupted or not being allowed to speak.

This example illustrates how a question of privilege can be used to address urgent matters that affect a member's rights or privileges during a meeting or assembly.
