Propose a change

Traffic Management Act 2004

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

24 Intervention in activities of network management authority

(1) This section explains the general powers which may be conferred by an intervention order under section 21(5)(c). (2) Such powers may authorise the traffic director to give to the network management authority directions with respect to the exercise of any specified function, including in particular directions— (a) to exercise (or to cease or refrain from exercising) such a function; (b) as to the way in which such a function is (or is not) to be exercised; (c) as to the policies to be adopted in the exercise of any function. (3) The order may specify any function of the authority (whether or not conferred in their capacity as a traffic authority) the exercise of which appears to the appropriate national authority to be capable of contributing to, or interfering with, the achievement of the traffic director's objectives. (4) Such powers may also authorise the traffic director, where it appears to him that the authority has failed to comply with a direction— (a) to take any steps which still remain to be taken by the authority to comply with the direction, and (b) recover from the authority as a civil debt the costs reasonably incurred by him in taking those steps. (5) Anything done by the traffic director under subsection (4)(a) is to be treated as having been done by the authority.

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.

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.
