I looked into it a little. The meeting records (see A/PV.1976 below the video) states that they are voting on A/L.632, which is:

The General Assembly,
Recalling the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations,
Decides that any proposal in the General Assembly which would result in depriving the Republic of China of representation in the United Nations is an important question under Article 18 of the Charter.

Article 18, §2:

Decisions of the General Assembly on important questions shall be made by a two-thirds majority of the member present and voting.

So, indirectly they are trying to split them. But the vote is not directly on that.
