How to move amendments (or pp motions) to a different stage from the Amendment Workspace

- Update the required stage and/or bill version in the dialogue box
- Click on 'Move' and the LoDA and all amendments in the list will be updated with the new stage/bill version
Hints and tips
- You cannot move an amendment if it is locked to another user for editing
- You cannot move an amendment if you do not have edit rights to update the amendment
- You can move an amendment to another stage when it is at any state (e.g. Draft, Submitted, Tabled etc.). If you had an amendment that had been tabled in one stage and went through the Parliamentary process and the same amendment was tabled again at a later stage, it would be better to copy and paste that amendment into a LoDA for the new stage rather than move it as moving an amendment to another stage does not clear out it's lifecycle information (date that it was submitted, tabled etc.).
