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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

126 Compensation for restrictions on advertising

Where, for the purpose of complying with any regulations made under section thirty-four of this Act, works are carried out by any person— (a) for removing an advertisement which was being displayed on the seventh day of January, nineteen hundred and forty-seven, and was being displayed on the date on which the regulations came into force, or (b) for discontinuing the use for the display of advertisements of a site used for that purpose on the last-mentioned date, that person shall, on a claim made to the local planning authority within the time and in the manner prescribed by regulations under this Act, be entitled to recover from that authority compensation in respect of any expenses reasonably incurred by him in that behalf.

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.
