Propose a change

Care Standards Act 2000

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.

20 Urgent procedure for cancellation, variation etc: England

(1) If in respect of an establishment or agency for which the CIECSS is the registration authority (a) the CIECSS applies to a justice of the peace for an order— (i) cancelling the registration of a person in respect of the establishment or agency; (ii) varying or removing any condition for the time being in force by virtue of this Part; or (iii) imposing an additional condition; and (b) it appears to the justice that, unless the order is made, there will be a serious risk to a person’s life, health or well-being, the justice may make the order, and the cancellation, variation, removal or imposition shall have effect from the time when the order is made. (2) An application under subsection (1) may, if the justice thinks fit, be made without notice. (3) As soon as practicable after the making of an application under this section, the CIECSS shall notify the appropriate authorities of the making of the application. (4) An order under subsection (1) shall be in writing. (5) Where such an order is made, the CIECSS shall, as soon as practicable after the making of the order, serve on the person registered in respect of the establishment or agency— (a) a copy of the order; and (b) notice of the right of appeal conferred by section 21. (6) For the purposes of this section the appropriate authorities are— (a) the local authority in whose area the establishment or agency is situated; and (b) any other statutory authority whom the CIECSS thinks it appropriate to notify. (7) In this section “statutory authority” means a body established by or under an Act of Parliament.

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.
