Propose a change

Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994

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

14 Trade licences: supplementary.

(1) Nothing in sections 11 to 13 prevents a person entitled to take out a trade licence from holding two or more trade licences. (2) The holder of a trade licence may at any time request that the Secretary of State cancel the licence. (3) Where— (a) the Secretary of State refuses an application for a trade licence by a person entitled to make such an application, and (b) the applicant, within the period prescribed by regulations made by the Secretary of State, requests him to review his decision, the Secretary of State shall comply with the request and (in doing so) consider any representations made to him in writing during that period by the applicant.

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.
