Propose a change

Energy Act 2016

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

5 Transfer schemes: supplementary

(1) A scheme made under section 3 or 4 may— (a) contain incidental, supplementary and consequential provision; (b) make transitory or transitional provision or savings; (c) make different provision for different purposes; (d) make provision subject to exceptions. (2) Subject to subsection (3), the Secretary of State may modify a scheme made under section 3 or 4. (3) If a transfer under the scheme has taken effect, any modification under subsection (2) that relates to the transfer may be made only with the agreement of the person (or persons) affected by the modification. (4) A modification takes effect from such date as the Secretary of State may specify; and that date may be the date when the original scheme came into effect.

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.
