Crown Lands Act 1936

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.

8 Minor amendments of Crown Lands Acts

(1) The authority, approval or consent of the Treasury, when required for the purpose of this Part of this Act or of any provision of the Crown Lands Acts, 1829 to 1927, or of any such provision as applied for the purpose of any other enactment, may be given either generally or for any class of case or for any particular case, and may be signified under the hand of a Secretary to the Treasury or of some person authorised in that behalf by the Treasury. (2) All moneys invested after the commencement of this Act in pursuance of section one hundred and nine of the Crown Lands Act, 1829, or section one of the Crown Lands Act, 1894, shall, instead of being invested in the name of the Treasury as required by those sections, be invested— (a) in the case of moneys invested in any manner authorised by any of the provisions of section one of the Trustee Act, 1925, other than the provisions of paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of that section, in the name of the National Debt Commissioners; and (b) in the case of moneys invested in any other manner, in the name of the Commissioners of Crown Lands; and in section one hundred and eleven of the Crown Lands Act, 1829, a reference to the National Debt Commissioners shall be substituted for the reference to the Treasury. (3) Notwithstanding anything in section sixty-one of the Crown Lands Act, 1829, a person employed to make a survey or estimate under that section shall not be required to annex thereto an oath or affirmation. (4) The definition of " land " in subsection (1) of section twenty-two of the Crown Lands Act, 1927, shall have effect as if for the word " corporeal," where it secondly occurs, there were substituted the word " incorporeal. " (5) Section one of the Crown Lands Act, 1845 (which contains provisions as to leases which are superseded by the provisions of section four of the Crown Lands Act, 1927) shall cease to have effect.

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.
