Propose a change

Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024

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

31 Enforcement orders

(1) Where the CMA finds, as a result of a conduct investigation, that an undertaking has breached a conduct requirement, it may make an order (an “enforcement order”) imposing on the undertaking such obligations as the CMA considers appropriate for one or more of the following purposes— (a) in a case where the breach is ongoing, stopping the breach; (b) preventing the breach from happening again; (c) addressing any damage caused by the breach. (2) The CMA may vary an enforcement order by making a revised version of that order. (3) An enforcement order may include transitional, transitory or saving provision. (4) An enforcement order must— (a) specify the breach to which it relates; (b) include the CMA’s reasons for imposing the obligations in the order. (5) The CMA may consult such persons as the CMA considers appropriate before making an enforcement order (including a revised version of an order). (6) Where the CMA decides to make an enforcement order (other than an interim enforcement order under section 32), it must do so as soon as reasonably practicable after giving the undertaking a notice of its findings under section 30(1). (7) As soon as reasonably practicable after making an enforcement order (including a revised version of an order), the CMA must publish the order. (8) The CMA may consent to an undertaking acting in a way that would otherwise constitute a breach of an enforcement order.

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.

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.
