  1. Select Amendment Manager > Create Official List

  2. In the dialog box that appears, select ‘Consolidated List of Amendments’

  3. Fill in the options on the dialog box and click on Create button

  4. In newly created list in the Editor:

    1. Update the amendments in the list so that they point to the version of the Bill when it first entered the 2nd House

    2. Merge, delete and move amendments around as required

      1. You may notice that some amendments are at the top of the list when they should be further down. This is because LM is associating ping pong amendments with the As Brought from the Commons version of the Bill, and the amendments are to provisions that are beyond what was contained in that Bill print. You don't need to worry - these amendments can be dragged and dropped into place.

    3. If you made changes to clause & schedule numbers as part of updating the amendments also check that the associated interstitial heading needs updating as well,

    4. After you’ve finished updating the amendments, manually insert any missing interstitial headings where required (select Interstitial heading from the Insert Menu, making sure your cursor is in the ping pong motion before the location where the interstitial heading should be inserted)

    5. Renumber the amendments so that they are now numbered 1 to n (Tools > Renumber amendments)

    6. Save and close the list

  5. If you need to add further amendments after you have begun work on the consolidated list (for example, there are 3rd reading amendments or unexpected divisions), copy those amendments to Ping Pong stage in the same way as outlined in "How to copy the agreed (or likely to be agreed) amendments to ‘Ping Pong’ stage" above. Open the newly duplicated amendments in a temporary list and copy and paste them into the correct place in your consolidated list. You can do this by right-clicking on the amendment in the structure view or by right-clicking on the 'Amendment' element in the breadcrumb for that amendment. Tip: Make sure to use ctrl+V when pasting into the correct place. 

  6. Share the document version with the other House and let them know that it’s ready for them to prepare for publishing
