Which of the following actions would typically require a "point of order"?

A "point of order" is a request made to the chairperson or presiding officer of a meeting, to draw attention to a breach of the rules of procedure. The correct answer highlights a situation where a delegate or member of the assembly is exceeding their allotted time limit, which directly violates the established procedural norms of the meeting.

When a speaker goes over the designated time, it can disrupt the flow of the meeting and hinder the opportunity for others to speak. Therefore, bringing up a point of order in this instance serves to uphold the meeting's structure and maintain fairness among participants. This helps ensure that the rules are being followed and that every member has a chance to contribute within the time constraints set for the meeting.

In contrast, the discussion of old business, the proposal of a new motion, and the confirmation of the agenda are standard parts of formal meeting procedures and do not inherently require a point of order unless there is a specific violation of the rules occurring during those actions.
