Propose a change

Ordnance Factories and Military Services Act 1984

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

What to do with it
As published

12 Building and planning contraventions.

(2) Where— (a) any interest in or right over land is transferred in pursuance of a provision made by virtue of section 1(1)(a) above, (b) during the war period works on the land not complying with a building law or with planning control were carried out, or a use of the land not complying with planning control was begun, (c) the works remained, or the use continued, from the end of that period to the time of the transfer, and (d) immediately before the coming into effect of the transfer the building law or planning control was unenforceable in respect of the works or use, the works or use shall, at all times after the coming into effect of the transfer, be treated for all purposes as complying with the building law or planning control.

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.
