Propose a change

Equality Act 2010

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

183 Exemptions from rail vehicle accessibility regulations

(1) The Secretary of State may by order (an “exemption order”)— (a) authorise the use for carriage of a regulated rail vehicle even though the vehicle does not conform with the provisions of rail vehicle accessibility regulations with which it is required to conform; (b) authorise a regulated rail vehicle to be used for carriage otherwise than in conformity with the provisions of rail vehicle accessibility regulations with which use of the vehicle is required to conform. (2) Authority under subsection (1)(a) or (b) may be for— (a) a regulated rail vehicle that is specified or of a specified description, (b) use in specified circumstances of a regulated rail vehicle, or (c) use in specified circumstances of a regulated rail vehicle that is specified or of a specified description. (3) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (4) After consulting the Disabled Persons Transport Advisory Committee and such other persons as the Secretary of State thinks appropriate, the Secretary of State may— (a) make an exemption order in the terms of the application for the order; (b) make an exemption order in such other terms as the Secretary of State thinks appropriate; (c) refuse to make an exemption order. (5) The Secretary of State may make an exemption order subject to such conditions and restrictions as are specified. (6) “Specified” means specified in an exemption order. (7) Section 207(2) does not require an exemption order to be made by statutory instrument; but such an order is as capable of being amended or revoked as an order made by statutory instrument.

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.
