Propose a change

Police Pensions Act 1976

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.

As published

6 Appeals.

(1) Subject to the following provisions of this section, regulations made under section 1 above shall make provision as to the court or other person by whom appeals are to be heard and determined in the case of any person who is aggrieved— (a) by the refusal of the police pension authority to admit a claim to receive as of right a pension, or a larger pension than that granted, under regulations made under that section; or (b) by the forfeiture of any pension granted to him thereunder. (2) No provision made in the regulations by virtue of subsection (1) above shall confer a right of appeal against anything done by the police pension authority in the exercise of any power which is conferred on that authority by the regulations and is expressly declared by the regulations to be a power which that authority is to exercise in their discretion. (3) The regulations may provide, in relation to questions arising thereunder, for the reference of any such matter as is prescribed, either by the police pension authority or by the court, to a medical practitioner whose decision thereon shall, subject to such rights of appeal as may be provided by the regulations to such tribunal as may be constituted thereunder, be final on the matter so referred.

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.

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.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
