Info

Amendment sorted in the wrong position?

  • If an amendment has been sorted into the incorrect position, make sure you check and update the location information in the Amendment Information right hand panel to control its sort position for subsequent lists e.g. adding a sort code.

  • Once you have updated the location information, select Tools > Update List from the upper tool bar drop-down menus to refresh the list. This will re-run the list generation logic (see info panel below) so that your updated amendment will be correctly sorted.

Info

Process and logic for auto-generating the Lords Daily Sheet

Deciding on the document template to use:

  • If there are no published Marshalled Lists for this bill version, then a Daily Sheet document template is used.

  • If there are published Marshalled Lists for this bill version, then a Supplementary Sheet document template is used.

Filtering which amendments to include in the list:

Amendments will appear in the Daily Sheet or unnumbered Supplementary Sheet if:

  • they were recorded as having been “tabled” up to the specified cut-off date/time of the amendment list,

  • they haven’t already got an outcome recorded against them e.g. Withdrawn before debate, Agreed to etc.., and

  • they haven't already been published on a previous list.

Sorting the amendments

They will be sorted in the order they appear in the bill or by the Order of Consideration, if there is one (see Sorting logic used by Lords amendment lists for more information on sort logic).

Amendments to amendments will be sorted by the page/line information or the amendment number they are linked to. This information is automatically captured by parsing the italic amendment note on amendments to amendments when saving.

Populating the list

As part of populating the list with amendments, interstitial headings are automatically inserted before each amendment group e.g. “Clause 2”; “After Schedule 2” etc.
