Propose a change

Customs Consolidation Act 1876

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

277 Isle of Man deemed part of United Kingdom for Customs purposes.

Your change, as a redline

277 Isle of Man deemed part of United Kingdom for Customs purposes.

The Isle of Man shall be deemed and taken to be part of the United Kingdom for all the purposes of the Customs Acts; but nothing herein contained shall prejudice or affect, or be construed in any way, directly or indirectly, to prejudice or affect, any of the rights or privileges legally exercised or enjoyed by the said isle at the time of the passing of this Act.

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.
