After section 43B of the Terrorism Act 2000 insert— Power to search terrorist offenders released on licence 43C (1) A constable may stop and search a terrorist offender who is within subsection (2) if the constable is satisfied that it is necessary to do so for purposes connected with protecting members of the public from a risk of terrorism. (2) A terrorist offender is within this subsection if— (a) the offender has been released on licence (and not recalled), and (b) the offender’s licence includes a search condition. (3) The power in subsection (1) may be exercised in any place to which the constable lawfully has access (whether or not it is a place to which the public has access). (4) Subsection (5) applies if a constable, in exercising the power in subsection (1) to stop a terrorist offender, stops a vehicle (see section 116(2)). (5) The constable may search the vehicle and anything in or on it for purposes connected with protecting members of the public from a risk of terrorism. (6) Nothing in subsection (5) confers a power to search any person, but the power to search in that subsection is in addition to the power in subsection (1) to search a terrorist offender. (7) The power in subsection (1) to search a terrorist offender includes power to search anything carried by the offender. (8) Subsection (5) of section 43B applies for the purposes of this section as it applies for the purposes of that section.

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.
