The Port of Tyne Harbour Revision Order 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
51 Restriction of works and dredging
(1) Subject to paragraph (4), no person other than the Authority may on, under, in or over tidal waters or land below the level of high water in the port— (a) construct, maintain, alter, renew or extend any works, except in accordance with a works licence granted under article 53 (licensing of works); (b) dredge, except in accordance with a dredging licence granted under article 54 (licensing of dredging). (2) The Authority may serve a notice on any person who contravenes this article to remove, abate, or rectify, within a reasonable time specified in the notice, any work, operation or omission to which the contravention relates and to restore the site to its former condition. (3) If a person served with a notice under paragraph (2) fails to comply with the requirements of the notice, the Authority may carry out the works so required and may recover the costs incurred from that person. (4) Nothing in this article applies to any operations or works— (a) specifically authorised by any enactment; (b) of a statutory undertaker; (c) authorised by a moorings licence granted under article 45 (licensing of moorings). (5) Any person who without reasonable excuse contravenes this article is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale.

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.

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.
