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.

As published

97B Orders for securing compliance with confiscation order

(1) This section applies where the court makes a confiscation order. (2) The court may make such order in relation to the accused as it believes is appropriate for the purpose of ensuring that the confiscation order is effective (a “compliance order”). (3) The court must consider whether to make a compliance order— (a) on the making of the confiscation order, and (b) if it does not make a compliance order then, at any later time (while the confiscation order is still in effect) on the application of the prosecutor. (4) In considering whether to make a compliance order, the court must, in particular, consider whether any restriction or prohibition on the accused's travel outside the United Kingdom ought to be imposed for the purpose mentioned in subsection (2). (5) The court may discharge or vary a compliance order on an application made by— (a) the prosecutor; (b) the accused. (6) For the purposes of any appeal or review, a compliance order is a sentence.

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.
