Propose a change

The Surrey (Structural Changes) Order 2026

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.

As published

44 Expenditure

The total of the expenditure properly incurred by the East Surrey Council returning officer and the West Surrey Council returning officer in relation to the holding of the 2026 elections is to be divided among, and paid by, the county council, the East Surrey councils and the West Surrey councils in such proportions as may be agreed between them but, where the East Surrey Council returning officer or the West Surrey Council returning officer notifies the Secretary of State that there is no such agreement, the Secretary of State may— (a) determine the proportions in which the expenditure is to be divided and paid; or (b) appoint an arbitrator for that purpose.

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.
