The Medical Certificate of Cause of Death Regulations 2024
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
23 Revised medical examiner’s certificate
(1) Where an appropriate medical examiner has been invited to revise the medical examiner’s certificate under regulation 22, the examiner must, as soon as practicable and to the extent they consider appropriate, review— (a) the deceased person’s relevant health records; (b) any information provided under regulation 22; and (c) any other information which the examiner considers relevant, with a view to establishing the cause of death to the best of the examiner’s knowledge and belief. (2) Where the appropriate medical examiner agrees to revise the medical examiner’s certificate, the examiner must, as soon as practicable— (a) comply with the duties set out in regulation 18 afresh, to the extent that the examiner considers appropriate; (b) comply with the duties set out in regulations 19, 20 and 21 afresh; and (c) without unreasonable delay, take reasonable steps to ensure that the informant is aware that the revised medical examiner’s certificate has been given to the registrar under regulation 21(1). (3) Where the appropriate medical examiner does not agree to revise the medical examiner’s certificate, the examiner must either— (a) inform the registrar of their decision not to revise the certificate and the reasons for it; or (b) make a referral to the relevant senior coroner under regulation 20.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.
