Propose a change

Local Government (Wales) Act 1994

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

41 Continuity of employment in certain cases of voluntary transfer.

(1) This section applies to a person (“the employee”) who at any time ceases to be employed by an old authority if— (a) the termination of his employment is attributable to any provision made by or under this Act; (b) he is subsequently employed by another person; and (c) by virtue of section 138 of the Employment Rights Act 1996 (renewal or re-engagement) that subsequent employment precludes his receiving any redundancy payment under Part XI of that Act with respect to his terminated employment. (2) Chapter I of Part XIV of the Employment Rights Act 1996 (computation of period of employment for the purposes of that Act) shall have effect as if it provided— (a) for the period of the employee’s employment by the old authority to count as a period of employment with his new employer; and (b) for the change of employer not to break the continuity of the period of his employment. (3) For the purposes of any provision of the employee’s contract of employment with his new employer which depends on his length of service with that employer, the period of his employment with the old authority shall count as a period of employment with his new employer.

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.
