Propose a change

Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions 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

22 Scope of Part 2

(A1) This Part applies in relation to a person if the Secretary of State is satisfied that the person is within subsection (1) or (1A). (1) A person is within this subsection if— (a) the person carries on an activity in the area of two or more local authorities, and (b) each of those authorities has the same relevant function in relation to that activity. (1A) A person (P) is within this subsection if each of the conditions in subsection (1B) is met. (1B) The conditions are— (a) that P carries on an activity in relation to which a local authority exercises a relevant function; (b) that the effect of arrangements made by P with any organisation or other person is that P's approach to compliance, in respect of the relevant function, is one that is shared with another person (Q) who carries on the activity; (c) that— (i) at least one of P and Q carries on the activity in the area of two or more local authorities, or (ii) Q carries on the activity in the area of a local authority in which P does not carry on the activity. (2) In this Part, references to “the regulated person” are to a person to whom this Part applies. (3) The Secretary of State may from time to time publish guidance about matters likely to be taken into account for the purposes of subsection (1B)(b). (4) The guidance may be published in such manner as the Secretary of State 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.

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.
