Unable to render this page.
User should be returned a more user friendly message such as "No results with these search criteria" or " Please select search criteria" - discuss with George on exact wording.
A potentially simpler solution would be to not let an empty form be submitted. (That's that same as a couple of our other interactions, for example, when you try to add a new person to a role. If the box is empty, nothing happens.)
