Propose a change

Public Service Pensions Act 2013

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

11 Valuations

(1) Scheme regulations for a scheme under section 1 which is a defined benefits scheme must provide for actuarial valuations to be made of— (a) the scheme, and (b) any statutory pension scheme that is connected with it. (1A) Subsection (1) does not apply to a scheme under section 1 if— (a) the scheme is connected with another scheme under section 1, and (b) actuarial valuations are provided for under subsection (1) in scheme regulations for that other scheme. (2) Such a valuation is to be carried out in accordance with Treasury directions. (3) Treasury directions under subsection (2) may in particular specify— (a) how and when a valuation is to be carried out; (b) the time in relation to which a valuation is to be carried out; (c) the data, methodology and assumptions to be used in a valuation; (d) the matters to be covered by a valuation; (e) where a scheme under section 1 and another statutory pension scheme are connected, whether the schemes are to be valued separately or together (and if together, how); (f) the period within which any changes to the employer contribution rate under a scheme under section 1 must take effect following a valuation. (4) Treasury directions under subsection (2), and variations and revocations of such directions, may only be made after the Treasury has consulted the Government Actuary. (5) Scheme regulations for a scheme under section 1 which is not a defined benefits scheme may provide for actuarial valuations to be made of the scheme and any statutory pension scheme that is connected with it; and if they do, subsections (2) to (4) apply.

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.
