Propose a change

Customs and Excise Management Act 1979

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.

As published

22 Approval of examination stations at regulated aerodromes

(1) The Commissioners may approve, for such periods ... as they think fit, a part of, or a place at, any regulated aerodrome for the loading and unloading of goods and the embarkation and disembarkation of passengers. (1A) In any case where they consider it would facilitate the administration, collection or enforcement of any duty of customs, the Commissioners may by regulations— (a) specify conditions which must be met before an approval is granted, or (b) specify other conditions which they may, in any particular case, require to be met before an approval is granted. (1B) In any other case, an approval has effect subject to such conditions and restrictions as the Commissioners think fit. (2) The Commissioners may at any time for reasonable cause revoke or vary the terms of any approval given under this section. (3) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

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.
