Propose a change

Housing (Consequential Provisions) Act 1985

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.

(1) The re-enactment of provisions in the consolidating Acts, and the consequent repeal of those provisions by this Act, does not affect the continuity of the law. (2) Anything done (including subordinate legislation made), or having effect as done, under a provision reproduced in the consolidating Acts has effect as if done under the corresponding provision of the Acts (3) References (express or implied) in the consolidating Acts or any other enactment, instrument or document to a provision of the consolidating Acts shall, so far as the context permits, be construed as including, in relation to times, circumstances and purposes before the commencement of those Acts, a reference to corresponding earlier provisions. (4) A reference (express or implied) in an enactment, instrument or other document to a provision reproduced in the consolidating Acts shall be construed, so far as is required for continuing its effect and subject to any express amendment made by this Act, as being, or as the case may require including, a reference to the corresponding provision of the consolidating Acts.

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.
