Propose a change

Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014

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.

(1) For the purposes of this Act, an entity (“E”) is connected with a relevant authority at any time if E is an entity other than the relevant authority and the relevant authority considers that, in accordance with proper practices in force at that time— (a) the financial transactions, reserves, assets and liabilities of E are to be consolidated into the relevant authority’s statement of accounts for the financial year in which that time falls, (b) the relevant authority’s share of the financial transactions, reserves, assets and liabilities of E is to be consolidated into the relevant authority’s statement of accounts for that financial year, or (c) the relevant authority’s share of the net assets or net liabilities of E, and of the profit or loss of E, are to be brought into the relevant authority’s statement of accounts for that financial year. (2) In subsection (1), “entity” means any entity, whether or not a legal person. (3) The Secretary of State may by regulations amend subsection (1) or (2). (4) In subsection (1) as it applies in relation to a health service body, the reference to the relevant authority’s statement of accounts is to be read as a reference to the body’s accounts.

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.
