Propose a change

Climate Change Act 2008

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

35 Advice on emissions from international aviation and international shipping

(1) It is the duty of the Committee to advise the Secretary of State on the consequences of treating emissions of targeted greenhouse gases from— (a) international aviation, and (b) international shipping, as emissions from sources in the United Kingdom for the purposes of Part 1. (2) The duty applies if and to the extent that regulations under section 30 do not provide for such emissions to be so treated. (3) Advice given by the Committee under this section must also contain the reasons for that advice. (4) The Committee must give its advice under this section— (a) when it gives its advice under section 34 for the budgetary period 2023-2027, and (b) when it gives its advice under that section for each subsequent budgetary period. (5) The Committee must, at the time it gives its advice under this section to the Secretary of State, send a copy to the other national authorities. (6) As soon as is reasonably practicable after giving its advice to the Secretary of State, the Committee must publish that advice in such manner as it considers appropriate.

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.
