Propose a change

The Higher Education (Assessment Fees) (England) Regulations 2023

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.

(2) The OfS may charge the governing body interest on the unpaid amount of the fee for the time being at the rate specified in paragraph (3) accruing on a daily basis until the unpaid amount is paid in full. (3) The rate is the percentage per annum found by applying the following formula— Bank of England rate + 5 where the “Bank of England rate” is the official bank rate announced at the most recent meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England. (4) The total amount of interest charged under paragraph (2) must not exceed the amount of the fee. (5) The OfS may recover from the governing body, as a civil debt due to the OfS, the unpaid amount of the fee and the amount of any unpaid interest charged under paragraph (2).

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.

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.
