Commons Amendments only

  • There is an additional state "Ready for Publishing" which the PPU will use once they've finished setting an amendment and it is considered ready for publishing.  The 'Marshalled List' logic has been updated to only populate the list if Amendments have the 'Ready for Publishing' status (and no longer the 'Tabled' status)
