If your amendment is not ‘wholly in force’ and has a different type of <strong>In Force Date Qualification</strong> (for example ‘for specified purposes’), this will be noted in the annotation and you will need to check the annotation to make sure that this has been rendered correctly: for further details on what the annotation should look like see [[Editorial_Update/Annotation_Conventions#Annotations_and_In_Force_Date_Qualifications|Annotations and In Force Date Qualifications]]

===Checking the amendment in XMetaL===
  
−
If your editorial update task involves high level insertions, here's what you need to do.<ol><li> From the ‘Update Overview’ page <strong>select the ‘Details’ button</strong> next to the update task you are going to complete.</li>
+
<ol><li>Once the provision has been inserted and the auto-annotation has been generated, check that the annotation is accurate and complete. Carry out any edits if necessary (refer back to the effects spreadsheet if you need to):
 +
*Type of Effect is correct
 +
*Punctuation is correct (e.g. no unnecessary spaces)
 +
*Date cited is that of the Point of Time you are editing and where applicable the correct In Force Date Qualification has been added after the date (check effects spreadsheet for any qualifications). See also Variations.
 +
*If a limited extent amendment, the extent is referenced
 +
*Affected provision is correct
 +
*Affecting provision is correct
 +
*Savings are referenced (where applicable
 +
*Commencement order is referenced (where applicable)
 +
See more detail on annotations in [[Editorial_Update/Annotation_Conventions|Annotation Conventions]]</li>
 +
 +
<li>Scroll back up to the where the amendment was made in the <strong>amended provision</strong> and check the inserted wording is positioned correctly. Delete any unnecessary spaces between the existing punctuation and the inserted tags and words, or insert a space if appropriate.
 +
</li>  
  
−
<li> The ‘Update Details’ page for high level amendments will show a list of the high level amendments that need to be completed for the Point in Time you are editing (there may be more than one).  The details given are the same as for provision level amendments BUT there is no preview facility built into this page. You will need to select the ‘Preview Legislation’ option to preview the amendments on completion. Directly under the table you will be presented with the Table of Contents for the Act in question. <strong> insert image</strong></li> 
+
<strong>Insertion of s. 20(3A):</strong>
  
−
<li> Use the link in the amendments list to link to the ‘affecting provision’ and <strong>check the amendment instructions</strong>.  In particular you should confirm where the inserted provision or provisions is to be placed. For example, the amending document might read: “After section 16 of the Game Licences Act 1860 insert the following section –“.</li>
+
<strong>Before</strong>
  
−
<li> <strong>Scroll down the Table of Contents</strong> and find where the section should be inserted.  When carrying out high level amendments you need to decide what ‘level’ you are going to check out in order to make the amendment.  To do this you need to locate where the provision is to go and then ‘check out’ the parent level e.g.  Crossheading, Chapter, Part, Schedule to which that new provision will ultimately belong. (Further information on the structure of the documents held on legislation.gov.uk can be found [[Editorial_Update/XMetal_Tagging_Guide|here]]). You need to check out the document out in this way to make sure that you can position the new provision in the right place in the Act, with the correct XML tagging.
+
[[File:Insertion of sub-provision before - WE.png|link=]]
  
−
<strong>Note:</strong>  If the document you are editing is very small or old there may be no crossheadings or Parts etc.  In this case you should check out the ‘main body’ or ‘Schedules’. The options to do this are available at the top of the Table of Contents on the ‘Update Details’ page.  At the moment you cannot check out the whole Act.</li>
 
  
−
<li> Once you have located the ‘parent level’ you need to ‘check it out’ to complete the amendment.  <strong>Select the ‘Check Out for edit’ button which appears next to the parent level</strong>, this will launch XMetaL, ready for you to carry out the amendment.

−
<strong>Note:</strong> When prompted, select ‘<strong>save file</strong>’. Once the document has been downloaded, open it by double clicking it in the download box.  Alternatively, right click on the file in the downloads box and select ‘<strong>open containing folder</strong>’. From the containing folder, select your file, right click and select ‘<strong>Open with > XMetal</strong>’. XMetaL does not need to be open already.</li>

[[File:Insertion of sub-provision after - WE.png|link=]]
  
−
<li> In XMetaL, in the upper pane, you will see that the checked out document includes all the provisions that come under the parent you selected, including any heading, for example 'Part V'. By default the legislation will be shown in ‘tags on view’. In the lower pane (‘resource manager window’) you’ll see the amending tasks you need to carry out. The list will be collapsed by default. To expand, click on the small cross to the left of the word task.

Carrying out the amendment in XMetaL

Note: These instructions assume you have checked out the relevant parent-level that is to be amended, that you have set up your XMetaL workspace, and that you are now ready to carry out the amendment. For guidance on the steps required to reach this point, see Starting Update Tasks.

  1. In the amending provision window:
    • Read what the amendment is and where in the amended provision it is to be made.
    • In the amending provision highlight and copy the provision that you need to insert by selecting the appropriate opening tag. For example:
      • ukl:P1 (select from ukl:P1group if the provision has a title) for a provision
      • ukl:Part for a Part
      • ukl:Chapter for a Chapter
      • ukl:Schedule for a Schedule
    You can also select the BlockAmendment to select the whole block of data to be inserted. You can right-click and copy or use the standard edit and copy menu options from the toolbar.
  2. In the amended provision, scroll to find the provision that the new provision will follow and place the cursor at the end of that provision (i.e. after the closing /ukl:P1group, /ukl:Part, /ukl:Chapter, or /ukl:Schedule tag) and before the open tags of the next provision. If in doubt you can use the Element list to check which tags are valid where your cursor is currently positioned.
  3. Single click on the task to highlight it in the Resource Manager window.
  4. Your next action will be determined by whether the amendment covers the whole extent or is for a limited extent.

Whole extent

On the toolbar at the top of the page select Legislation - Textual Amendments - Addition. This will:

  • Automatically insert the new provision/Part/Chapter/Schedule, etc. bracketed by opening <addition> and closing </addition> tags in the amended provision;
  • Automatically insert the annotation for this amendment at the end of the amended provision; and
  • Generate a green tick next to the task in the Resource Manager window to show that it has been completed.

Note: after the amendment has been made, the cursor will be situated at the point the automatic annotation was inserted in the amended provision window.

Limited extent

On the toolbar at the top of the page select Legislation - Textual Amendments - Limited Extent Addition. In the pop-up 'XMetaL Author Essential', check the Extent entered is correct and click OK; this will:

  • Automatically insert the new provision/Part/Chapter/Schedule, etc. bracketed by opening <addition> and closing </addition> tags in the amended provision;
  • Automatically insert the annotation for this amendment at the end of the amended provision, including the limited extent in brackets after the effect; and
  • Generate a green tick next to the task in the Resource Manager window to show that it has been completed.

Note: after the amendment has been made, the cursor will be situated at the point the automatic annotation was inserted in the amended provision window.

See more on limited extent amendments.

Specified purposes

If your amendment is not ‘wholly in force’ and has a different type of In Force Date Qualification (for example ‘for specified purposes’), this will be noted in the annotation and you will need to check the annotation to make sure that this has been rendered correctly: for further details on what the annotation should look like see Annotations and In Force Date Qualifications

Checking the amendment in XMetaL

  1. Once the provision has been inserted and the auto-annotation has been generated, check that the annotation is accurate and complete. Carry out any edits if necessary (refer back to the effects spreadsheet if you need to):
    • Type of Effect is correct
    • Punctuation is correct (e.g. no unnecessary spaces)
    • Date cited is that of the Point of Time you are editing and where applicable the correct In Force Date Qualification has been added after the date (check effects spreadsheet for any qualifications). See also Variations.
    • If a limited extent amendment, the extent is referenced
    • Affected provision is correct
    • Affecting provision is correct
    • Savings are referenced (where applicable
    • Commencement order is referenced (where applicable)
    See more detail on annotations in Annotation Conventions
  2. Scroll back up to the where the amendment was made in the amended provision and check the inserted wording is positioned correctly. Delete any unnecessary spaces between the existing punctuation and the inserted tags and words, or insert a space if appropriate.
    3. Insertion of s. 20(3A): Before Insertion of sub-provision before - WE.png After Insertion of sub-provision after - WE.png See on the published site 1968 c. 20 s. 20(3A)
  3. Once you are satisfied that the amendment is correct and complete, select Legislation - Check In on the menu bar at the top of the page.
  4. In the pop-up Document is checked in successfully click OK.

Checking that the amendment on the Editorial Site

  2. Select the Newly Edited Version to see a preview of the update provision. Check that your amendment and annotation commentary are formatted as you would expect.
  3. To check the timeline and see how the provision would look in the context of the whole item of legislation, select the Preview Legislation button and check:
    • Check that the provision appears in the correct place on the Table of Contents.
      • Open the parent level and check you’re satisfied that the amendment has formatted correctly, that it is in the right place and that it has square brackets around it and the annotation reference and annotation text are correct.
      • Switch the Point in Time versions on and ensure that there is a new version of the parent as at the date of the insertion.
      • Return to the Table of Contents and open the provision on its own and repeat those checks i.e. check the annotation and Point in Time is correct there too.
