Member’s Explanatory Statements in NIA amendment lists
Users working on Northern Ireland Assembly Bill projects can now add “Member’s Explanatory Statements” to amendments in NIA lists.
Document checks
When editing parliamentary amendments, Lawmaker no longer suggests adding a Quoted Text element to text before a Quoted Structure in the amendment instruction. This is because Quoted Text elements within parliamentary amendments are not currently supported (they interfere with the Auto-apply feature). Full support for Quoted Text elements inside parliamentary amendments will be added in a future Lawmaker release.
