Propose a change

Teachers’ Pay and Conditions Act 1987 (repealed 6.3.1992)

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

4 Arrangements for settling remuneration and other conditions of employment of teachers in further education.

(1) Any arrangements for settling for the whole of England and Wales any matter relating to the remuneration and other conditions of employment of teachers in further education, or any description of such teachers, shall be such that every organisation which— (a) was represented immediately before the passing of this Act on the Burnham Further Education Committee, and (b) has members whose conditions of employment may be affected, is afforded a reasonable opportunity of participating in the process. (2) The “Burnham Further Education Committee” means the committee set up in pursuance of section 1 of the Remuneration of Teachers Act 1965 to consider the remuneration payable to teachers in further education. (3) It is the duty of the parties to any such arrangements to take any steps necessary to secure that the requirements of this section are complied with. (4) This section applies to arrangements notwithstanding that they were made before the passing of this Act and any steps required to be taken in relation to such arrangements shall be taken before anything is done in pursuance of the arrangements after the passing of this Act.

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.
