Propose a change

International Carriage of Perishable Foodstuffs Act 1976

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

14 Jurisdiction.

Any offence under this Act or any regulations made thereunder may be treated, for the purpose of conferring jurisdiction on a court (but without prejudice to any jurisdiction it may have apart from this section) as having been committed in any of the following places, that is to say— (a) the place where the transport equipment was being used when evidence of the offence first came to the attention of a constable or an examiner; (b) the place where the person charged resides or is or is believed to reside or be at the time when the proceedings are commenced; or (c) the place where at that time that person has his place or principal place of business or his operating centre for the transport equipment in question.

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.
