Propose a change

Landlord and Tenant Act 1987

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.

What to do with it
As published

19 Enforcement of obligations under Part I.

(1) The court may, on the application of any person interested, make an order requiring any person who has made default in complying with any duty imposed on him by any provision of this Part to make good the default within such time as is specified in the order. (2) An application shall not be made under subsection (1) unless— (a) a notice has been previously served on the person in question requiring him to make good the default, and (b) more than 14 days have elapsed since the date of service of that notice without his having done so. (3) The restriction imposed by section 1(1) may be enforced by an injunction granted by the court.

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.
