Introduction

By default, all documents created in a project (e.g. Bills, SIs, draft amendments, official amendment lists) are visible to and editable by all users in the same organisation as the user who created the document. When you create a project, the first document that is automatically created in that project will, in the same way, be visible to all users in your organisation.

Projects do not have separate permissions of their own. Instead, who can see and access a project (on the Dashboard) is determined by the documents inside the project. If there is at least one document in the project that a user has access to then the user will be able to see the project on their dashboard.

You can restrict access to documents when you first create them and you can change these permissions at any stage.
