Article 3(1) Column 1 | Column 2 | Column 3 Farming use | Unit of production | Net annual income from unit of production (£) (1) This is the figure for animals (irrespective of age) which are kept for 12 months. In the case of animals kept for less than 12 months, a pro-rata adjustment of this figure is to be made. (2) The figure given in Column 3, for a hectare of the type of land described in Column 1, is the rate applicable to that unit of production under the basic payment scheme (the “BPS rate”) for the relevant farming use in 2022 adjusted to take off 20% to account for the operation of Article 11A of Regulation 1307/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council establishing rules for direct payments to farmers under support schemes within the framework of the common agricultural policy, as that Regulation had effect in relation to England on 31st December 2022 (20% being the minimum reduction that all payments received by claimants under the basic payment scheme will be subject to by virtue of that Article), average rents and 2% for cross compliance. Article 11A was inserted by S.I. 2021/407 and substituted by S.I. 2022/407.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
