Propose a change

Modern Slavery Act 2015

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

32 Rules of court

(1) Rules of court may provide for a youth court to give permission for an application under section 15 or 23 against a person aged 18 or over to be made to the youth court if— (a) an application to the youth court has been made, or is to be made, under that section against a person aged under 18, and (b) the youth court thinks that it would be in the interests of justice for the applications to be heard together. (2) Rules of court may, in relation to a person reaching the age of 18 after proceedings against that person by virtue of this Part have begun— (a) prescribe circumstances in which the proceedings may or must remain in the youth court; (b) make provision for the transfer of the proceedings from the youth court to an adult magistrates' court (including provision applying sections 21 and 28 with modifications).

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.
