Propose a change

Education Act 1996

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

459 Provision of information.

Regulations may require, in relation to every maintained school, the local authority, the governing body or the head teacher to make available either generally or to prescribed persons, in such form and manner and at such times as may be prescribed— (a) such information relevant for the purposes of this Chapter as to the school hours at the school, and (b) such information as to the policies determined under section 457 which apply in relation to the school, as may be prescribed.

Your change, as a redline

459 Provision of information.

Regulations may require, in relation to every maintained school, the local authority, the governing body or the head teacher to make available either generally or to prescribed persons, in such form and manner and at such times as may be prescribed— (a) such information relevant for the purposes of this Chapter as to the school hours at the school, and (b) such information as to the policies determined under section 457 which apply in relation to the school, as may be prescribed.

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.
