The Marine Licensing (Exempted Activities and Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2026
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
23 Insertion of regulation 5A (calculation and determination of fees payable for monitoring, variation or transfers)
After regulation 5 insert— Calculation and determination of fees payable for monitoring, variation or transfer 5A (1) Where a fee payable under regulation 4A or 4B in respect of monitoring, variation or transfer is to be calculated at the hourly rate, the total number of hours worked or travelled may be expressed as a fraction where it cannot be expressed as a whole number. (2) Where an activity or licence falls within more than one description in Schedule 2 or Schedule 3, as the case may be, the higher fee is payable in relation to the activity. (3) Subject to paragraph (4), the fee payable in respect of monitoring of any description specified in the first column of the tables in Schedule 2 may be charged on each occasion on which the monitoring is carried out. (4) Where monitoring in relation to a licence of a kind mentioned in the first entry in the second column of table 1 in Schedule 2 is carried out on more than one occasion, the maximum fee specified in the third column of that table in relation to the fee for such monitoring applies in relation to the aggregate of the various amounts that (but for that limit) would be payable by way of fees in respect of the monitoring carried out on those occasions. (5) The fee payable under regulation 4A or 4B in respect of monitoring, variation or transfer may include— (a) a travel time charge which is the product of the hourly rate and the total number of hours of travel undertaken by each relevant person; and (b) the total amount of the reasonable travelling costs and related incidental expenditure incurred in respect of each relevant person. (6) In paragraph (5), ”relevant person” means a person acting on behalf of the Secretary of State in relation to monitoring, variation or transfer. .

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.
