Propose a change

Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006

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

40 Local authorities: duty to provide information on request

(1) This section applies if DBS is considering— (a) whether to include any person in a barred list; (b) whether to remove any person from a barred list. (2) If DBS thinks that a local authority hold any prescribed information relating to the person, it may require the authority to provide it with the information. (3) The local authority must comply with a requirement under subsection (2). (4) “Local authority” has the same meaning as in section 1 of the Local Authorities (Goods and Services) Act 1970.

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.
