Propose a change

Reservoirs Act 1975

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

11 Recording of water levels etc.

(1) For every high-risk reservoir the undertakers shall keep a record in the prescribed form of— (a) water levels and depth of water, including the flow of water over the waste weir or overflow; (b) leakages, settlements of walls or other works, and repairs; (c) such other matters as may be prescribed; and shall install and maintain such instruments as may be needed to provide the information to be recorded. (2) The record to be kept for a reservoir under this section shall give such information as may be prescribed of any of the matters to be included in the record, and shall give it at such intervals and in such manner as may from time to time be required by any directions of the construction engineer or inspecting engineer.

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.
