Propose a change

Town and Country Planning Act 1962

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

119 Application of s.118 to special cases of refusal or conditional grant of planning permission

(1) The provisions of this section shall have effect where— (a) planning permission for the development of land has been granted by a development order, and (b) that permission is withdrawn, whether by the revocation or amendment of the order or by the issue of directions under powers in that behalf conferred by the order, and (c) on an application made in that behalf under Part III of this Act, planning permission for that development is refused, or is granted subject to conditions other than those previously imposed by the development order. (2) In any case falling within the preceding subsection, the provisions of the last preceding section shall apply as if the planning permission granted by the development order— (a) had been granted by the local planning authority under Part III of this Act, and (b) had been revoked or modified by an order under section twenty-seven of this Act, and the provisions of section one hundred and twenty (except paragraph (b) of subsection (5) thereof) and of sections one hundred and twenty-one and one hundred and twenty-two of this Act shall apply as if references therein to an order under section twenty-seven of this Act were references to the planning decision whereby the planning permission in question is refused, or is granted subject to conditions other than those previously imposed by the development order.

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.
