Propose a change

Agriculture Act 2020

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

26 Requirements under section 23(1): duty to publish draft requirement

(1) Before a particular requirement is imposed under section 23(1), the Secretary of State must have— (a) published— (i) a draft of the requirement, (ii) a description of the persons on whom it is proposed that the requirement may be imposed, and (iii) the deadline for making comments on the draft, which must not be earlier than 4 weeks after the date of publication, and (b) decided, in the light of comments received before the deadline (and any other relevant matters), whether the requirement should be imposed in the terms of the draft or in revised terms. (2) A requirement in the decided form may be imposed on a person at any times after the decision when the person is within the published description.

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.
