Propose a change

Horticultural Produce Act 1986

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

3 Power to change the circumstances in which consent must be given.

(1) The Ministers may by order made by statutory instrument make such amendments of this Act as they think fit for the purpose of changing the circumstances min which an authorised officer is required to give written consent to the movement of produce. (2) Before making such an order, the Ministers shall consult such organisations as appear to them to represent interests likely to be affected by the order. (2A) Subsection (2) does not apply to an order which makes amendments that apply only in relation to England. (3) An order under this section shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. (4) In this section “the Ministers” means the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and the Secretary of State, acting jointly.

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.
