Hints and tips

If an amendment contains tracked changes or comments (in the Editor) then a warning will be displayed when you select to submit them.  You can choose to cancel and remove them or submit them anyway.

Submitting amendments from the 'Amendment Mangaer' tab will only work if:

• the associated bill document has been published by the appropriate Parliament,

• their status is “Draft”,

• there are no active locks on them, and

• there isn't a flag set against them (this check only works if submitting from the 'Amendments' tab)

Submitting amendments from the 'Document Information' right hand panel in the Editor, will only work if:

• the associated bill document has been published by the appropriate Parliament,

• their status is “Draft”, and

• there are no active locks on them.

The system knows which Parliament to share the amendments to:

• If the bill project is a Scottish bill, they will always be sent to Scottish Parliament.

• If the bill project is a UK bill, they will be sent to the Parliament who published the latest version of the bill

• If you are not a user in the appropriate Parliament that the amendments were submitted to, then you will only have read-only rights to the submitted amendments

You will continue to view an up-to-date version of the amendments so that if the Parliament made some changes to your amendment or the status was to update – you would be able to see these changes if you opened the amendments in the Editor
