Propose a change

Industrial Organisation and Development Act 1947

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

14 Ascertainment of activities to be treated as comprised in an industry.

(1) A development council order shall designate, in such manner as appears to the Board or Minister concerned to be requisite for preventing uncertainty, the activities that are to be treated as constituting the industry for which the development council is established (whether being such as are regarded for any other purpose as those of a single industry or such as are regarded for any other purpose as those of a group of industries or of a section or sections of an industry or industries). (2) An order amending a development council order may provide that further activities, designated as aforesaid, are to be treated as included in the industry for which the council is established, or that activities, designated as aforesaid, which are for the time being so treated are no longer to be so treated. (3) The preceding subsections shall apply also to an order under section nine of this Act and an order amending such an order, with the substitution of references to the industry in connection with which funds are to be made available under that section for references to the industry for which a development council is established and other requisite modifications. (4) In accordance with the preceding provisions of this section, the expression “the industry,” where used in this Act in relation to a development council or to an order under section nine of this Act, shall be construed as references to the industry that is for the time being, in accordance with those provisions, that for which the council is established or in connection with which funds are to be made available, as the case may be.

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.
