Propose a change

Requisitioned Land and War Works Act 1945

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.

What to do with it
As published

38 Miscellaneous provisions as to easements and rights acquired under Defence Acts.

(1) Where— (a) a right restrictive of the user of any land has been acquired by a Minister under the Defence Acts, whether by the execution of a deed poll or otherwise; and (b) between the date of the notice to treat and the acquisition of that right, any works have been constructed on, over or below the surface of the land adversely affected by the right; and (c) the construction of the works would have been an infringement of the right if it had taken place after the acquisition thereof, the Minister shall be entitled to remove the works and to recover the costs reasonably incurred by him in so doing from the person by whom the works were constructed. (2) A Minister may, with or without consideration, release either wholly or partly an easement or restrictive right acquired under the Defence Acts. (3) Section eighty-four of the Law of Property Act, 1925 (which relates to the discharge or modification of restrictive covenants) shall not apply to any restriction created or imposed under the Defence Acts or under section 13 (acquisition of land for oil installations) of the Land Powers (Defence) Act 1958 so long as the restriction is enforceable by a Minister against the persons for the time being entitled to the land adversely affected thereby; but nothing in this subsection shall affect the operation of subsection (11) of the said section eighty-four (which excepts from the operation of that section, inter alia, restrictions created for naval, military or air force purposes).

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.
