Propose a change

Landlord and Tenant Act 1954

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.

24D Amount of interim rent in any other case

(1) The interim rent in a case where section 24C of this Act does not apply is the rent which it is reasonable for the tenant to pay while the relevant tenancy continues by virtue of section 24 of this Act. (2) In determining the interim rent under subsection (1) above the court shall have regard— (a) to the rent payable under the terms of the relevant tenancy; and (b) to the rent payable under any sub-tenancy of part of the property comprised in the relevant tenancy, but otherwise subsections (1) and (2) of section 34 of this Act , or (as the case may be) subsections (2) to (4) of section 34A of this Act, shall apply to the determination as they would apply to the determination of a rent under that section if a new tenancy from year to year of the whole of the property comprised in the relevant tenancy were granted to the tenant by order of the court. (3) If the court— (a) has made an order for the grant of a new tenancy and has ordered payment of interim rent in accordance with section 24C of this Act, but (b) either— (i) it subsequently revokes under section 36(2) of this Act the order for the grant of a new tenancy; or (ii) the landlord and tenant agree not to act on the order, the court on the application of the landlord or the tenant shall determine a new interim rent in accordance with subsections (1) and (2) above without a further application under section 24A(1) of this Act.

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.
