Propose a change

National Heritage Act 1980

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

6 Powers of investment.

(1) Any sums in the Fund which are not immediately required for any other purpose may be invested by the Trustees in accordance with this section. (2) Sums directly or indirectly representing money paid into the Fund under section 2(1) or (1A) above may be invested in any manner approved by the Treasury; and the Trustees— (a) shall not invest any amount available for investment which represents such money except with the consent of the Treasury; and (b) shall, if the Treasury so require, invest any such amount specified by the Treasury in such manner as the Treasury may direct. (3) The trustees may invest any sums to which subsection (2) does not apply in any investments in which trustees may invest under general power of investment in section 3 of the Trustee Act 2000 (as restricted by sections 4 and 5 of that Act).

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.
