Propose a change

Patents, Designs, Copyright and Trade Marks (Emergency) Act

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

8 Persons to be heard before making of orders.

Before deciding as to the making of any order under this Act, the comptroller shall, unless having regard to the circumstances he considers it inexpedient or impossible so to do, give to any person who appears to the comptroller to be interested such opportunity of being heard as appears to him to be just.

Your change, as a redline

8 Persons to be heard before making of orders.

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.
