Propose a change

County Courts Act 1984

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

86 Execution of orders for payment by instalments.

(1) Where the court has made an order for payment of any sum of money by instalments, a warrant of control to recover any of that sum shall not be issued until after default in payment of some instalment according to the order. (2) Rules of court may prescribe the cases in which a warrant of control is to be issued if there is any such default and limit the amounts for which and the times at which a warrant of control may be issued. (3) Except so far as may be otherwise provided by rules of court made for those purposes, a warrant or successive warrants of control may be issued if there is any such default for the whole of the said sum of money and costs then remaining unpaid or for such part as the court may order either at the time of the original order or at any subsequent time; but except so far as may be otherwise provided by such rules, no warrant of control may be issued unless when it is issued the whole or some part of an instalment which has already become due remains unpaid.

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.
