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

8 Power to confer further special powers on traffic officers

(1) The appropriate national authority may by order made by statutory instrument confer further special powers on traffic officers. (2) The national authority may not confer a further special power on traffic officers unless it is satisfied that the power is necessary for the purpose of facilitating the performance of any duties which may be assigned to traffic officers. (3) The order may— (a) provide for the enforcement of any special power conferred by the order (whether by the creation of a summary offence or otherwise); (b) make supplemental, incidental, transitional or consequential provision (including provision amending any Act or subordinate legislation). (4) An order under this section may not be made by the Secretary of State unless a draft of the order has been laid before and approved by a resolution of each House of Parliament.

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.
