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.

4 Attending practitioner’s referral to the relevant senior coroner
(1) If at that time there are exceptional circumstances to justify doing so, a referral under regulation 3(1)(b)(ii) may be made orally, but otherwise must be in writing. (2) An attending practitioner who makes a referral to the relevant senior coroner orally under paragraph (1) must, as soon as practicable thereafter, confirm the referral in writing to the relevant senior coroner. (3) When making a referral under regulation 3(1)(b)(ii), or as soon as practicable thereafter, in addition to complying with the duty set out in regulation 2 of the Notification of Deaths Regulations 2019, the attending practitioner must provide to the relevant senior coroner any information referred to in regulation 3(1)(a) not already provided to the relevant senior coroner. (4) Subject to paragraph (5), where the relevant senior coroner has— (a) received a referral or notification of a death under any enactment; and (b) decided that there is no duty under section 1 of the Act to conduct an investigation into the death, the relevant senior coroner must notify the attending practitioner of that decision and the reasons for it. (5) Paragraph (4) does not apply to a referral to the relevant senior coroner under regulations 10(1) or 20(1). (6) Where an attending practitioner receives a notification under paragraph (4), the practitioner must, as soon as practicable, comply with any duties of the practitioner under these Regulations that had not been complied with prior to the referral or notification of the death to the relevant senior coroner.

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.
