Propose a change

Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992

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

38 Members’ superannuation schemes: separate fund to be maintained.

(1) In the following provisions a “members’ superannuation scheme” means any scheme or arrangement made by or on behalf of a trade union (including a scheme or arrangement shown in the rules of the union) in so far as it provides— (a) for benefits to be paid by way of pension (including any widows’ , widowers’, surviving civil partners’ or children’s pensions or dependants’ pensions) to or in respect of members or former members of the trade union, and (b) for those benefits to be so paid either out of the funds of the union or under an insurance scheme maintained out of those funds. (2) A trade union shall not maintain a members’ superannuation scheme unless it maintains a separate fund for the payment of benefits in accordance with the scheme. A “separate fund” means a fund separate from the general funds of the trade union.

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.
