Follow amendments to the article that matters to me
In the text of the file, click the bell next to the article number: every amendment tabled on it is flagged to you.
The right way to work a bill when your stake sits in one place.
In detail
You then receive every amendment tabled on that article, as soon as it is tabled, along with what becomes of it. This is the right level in most situations: fine enough to miss nothing on your subject, broad enough that you do not have to identify each amendment in advance.
What you receive, and when
The tabling reaches you straight away. The outcome, on the other hand, depends on what happened:
- An amendment declared inadmissible or withdrawn is flagged to you immediately.
- An amendment that is debated is flagged to you at the end of the examination of the article, alongside the other amendments. This is intentional: otherwise you would receive dozens of emails during a single sitting.
The follow travels with you through the shuttle
Following an article carries over from one reading to the next and from one chamber to the other, as long as the article number does not change. You do not have to switch it back on at each stage of the passage between the two chambers.
