The clerk needs to know all the rules of Parliament and is responsible for ringing the bells during a division. In front of the clerk are the hour glasses.

Hourglass

An hourglass, also known as a sandglass, sand timer, sand clock or egg timer, is a device for the measurement of time. It consists of two glass bulbs placed one above the other which are connected by a narrow tube. One of the bulbs is usually filled with fine sand which flows through the narrow...


The outer glasses last for four minutes and the middle glass runs for two. These glasses are turned when there is a division; one of the four-minute glasses is turned and the bells will ring and the clocks will flash green for the House of Representatives or red for the Senate for four minutes. After the hour glass runs out, the house's attendants will lock the doors and the whips will count the votes. Members vote by either moving to the government side of the house for a vote for a bill or the opposition side for a vote against a bill. If there is a division shortly after another division, the middle hour glass will be turned and the bells will ring for two minutes.

Does all sand turn into glass?

Not all sand turns into glass, but silica sand, which is primarily composed of silicon dioxide, can be melted and formed into glass when heated to high temperatures. This process is typically achieved in industrial settings, such as glass manufacturing. Other types of sand, composed of different minerals, do not produce glass when melted. Therefore, while silica sand can be transformed into glass, not all sand has the same properties or potential for glass formation.
