What to do with it
As published

SCHEDULE Ascertainment of Maximum Pension which would have been Appropriate

Section 1. 1 This Schedule shall have effect for ascertaining, for the purposes of subsection (3) of section one of this Act, the annual amount of the maximum pension which, if the Indian Independence Act 1947, had not passed, would, in the case of a person who is to be granted a pension under that section, have been appropriate in view of the nature of the service. The said annual amount is hereinafter referred to as “the maximum” and the person who is to be granted the pension is hereinafter referred to as “the judge.” 2 If the judge has not rendered at least one completed year of service in any of the grades mentioned in paragraph 5 of Part I of the Third Schedule to the Government of India (High Court Judges) Order 1937, the maximum shall be taken to be seven hundred and fifty pounds. 3 If the judge has rendered service for not less than one completed year in any of the said grades, the maximum shall be taken to be the amount stated in the last column of the Table in paragraph 6 of the said Part I in relation to the highest of those grades in which the judge has rendered service for not less than one completed year. 4 Paragraphs 7 to 9 of the said Part I (which relate to judges with service in two or more grades or with acting service in certain capacities) shall apply in relation to the preceding paragraphs of this Part of this Schedule as they apply in relation to paragraphs 5 and 6 of the said Part I.

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.

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.
