When drafting amendments on a List of Draft Amendments (LoDA), the insert menu will provide a list of amendment descriptions which will be pre-populated upon insertion with generic text to be altered according to the amendment you are planning to draft. Each jurisdiction has a selection of these pre-populated amendments - see below for the expected outcome upon selecting from this menu:
