Council Directive 71/86/EEC of 1 February 1971 on harmonisation of the basic provisions in respect of guarantees for short-term transactions (political risks) with public buyers or with private buyers

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.

As published

Article 3

1.   Whatever the type of policy used, the harmonised provisions shall apply to transactions which: — include either a credit risk of less than twenty-four months, or a credit risk and a guaranteed manufacturing risk where the cumulative period is less than twenty-four months; the manufacturing risk, however, must be of less than twelve months; — are concluded with a public buyer or with a private buyer; — are on a supplier credit basis. 2.   The provisions harmonised by this Directive concern only the guarantee in respect of political risks. 3.   The definitions of ‘public buyer’ and ‘private buyer’ contained in Article 3 of Directive No 70/509/EEC and in Article 4 of Directive No 70/510/EEC respectively shall apply.

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.
