Quick Filter

Lawmaker also has Quick Filters.  The relevant drop down menus are on the top right hand side of the Amendment Manager tab.  By clicking into the menu immediately to the right of Quick Filter, you can select

  • Draft

  • Submitted

  • Tabled

  • Ready For Publishing

These filters are sticky which means if you navigate away from this screen, they will still be applied when you get back.  If you change a bunch of Amendments from Draft to Submitted but leave the Quick Filter set to 'Draft', you will end up with an empty screen!


Info

Hints and tips

The list of amendments is already filtered by bill version so filtering the list of amendments, will only return matching amendments for that bill version

The filter only works on amendments that you have privileges to see

Whenever you navigate away from the ‘Amendment Manager’ tab and return to it, your filter preference will be retained

You can filter by more than one criterion at the same time

The List of Draft Amendments (LoDA) filter will offer a drop-down menu containing any existing LoDAs that you have permission to view.  If there are no LoDAs this drop-down will be disabled.

If you type "Amendment" in the location field, all 'amendments to amendments' will be returned (SP & UK amendments)

Commons amendments only

If you type "new clause" or "new clauses" in the 'Location' field, all new Clause amendments will be returned.  The same applies for new schedule amendments

If you type "All Agreed" in the 'current status' field, the system will return all "Agreed to" and "Agreed to on division" amendments
