The Medical Examiners (England) Regulations 2024

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

3 Terms of appointment of medical examiners and termination of appointment

(1) The terms of appointment of a medical examiner must include terms (however expressed) which provide that— (a) The appointment is terminated immediately in the event that the medical examiner ceases to be a registered medical practitioner; (b) The appointing body may terminate the appointment where it is of the opinion, after taking into account any standards of performance expected of a medical examiner as published by the National Medical Examiner from time to time, that the medical examiner is not suitable to be a medical examiner; (c) On the request of the appointing body, the medical examiner must, where reasonably practicable, exercise any relevant function in relation to any death that is required to be registered under Part 2 of the 1953 Act; (d) The medical examiner must, without unreasonable delay, notify the appointing body of any changes to their status as a registered medical practitioner, including any disciplinary action proposed or taken against them by their regulatory body; and (e) The appointing body may terminate the appointment where it is of the opinion that the medical examiner’s engagement in clinical practice is insufficient to support the continued exercise of relevant functions. (2) The terms of appointment of the medical examiner may include such other terms as may be agreed between the appointing body and the medical examiner.

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.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

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.
