Propose a change

Proceeds of Crime Act 2002

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

245 “Associated property”

(1) “Associated property” means property of any of the following descriptions (including property held by the respondent) which is not itself the recoverable property— (a) any interest in the recoverable property, (b) any other interest in the property in which the recoverable property subsists, (c) if the recoverable property is a tenancy in common, the tenancy of the other tenant, (d) if (in Scotland) the recoverable property is owned in common, the interest of the other owner, (e) if the recoverable property is part of a larger property, but not a separate part, the remainder of that property. (2) References to property being associated with recoverable property are to be read accordingly. (3) No property is to be treated as associated with recoverable property consisting of rights under a pension scheme (within the meaning of sections 273 to 275).

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.
