Propose a change

Tenants’ Rights, Etc. (Scotland) Act 1980

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

64 Pensions etc. for Rent Assessment Panel.

(1) The Secretary of State may pay or make provision for paying— (a) to or in respect of any member of the panel set up by section 38 of the 1971 Act, such sums by way of pensions, superannuation allowances and gratuities; and (b) to any member of the said panel who ceases to be a member other than on the expiry of his term of office, where it appears to the Secretary of State that there are special circumstances which make it unjust for the member not to receive compensation, such sum by way of compensation, as the Secretary of State may, with the approval of the Treasury, determine. (2)

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.
