Propose a change

Infrastructure Act 2015

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.

43 Petroleum and geothermal energy: right to use deep-level land

(1) A person has the right to use deep-level land in any way for the purposes of exploiting petroleum or deep geothermal energy. (2) Land is subject to the right of use (whether for the purposes of exploiting petroleum or deep geothermal energy) only if it is— (a) deep-level land, and (b) within a landward area. (3) But that does not prevent deep-level land that is within a landward area from being used for the purposes of exploiting petroleum or deep geothermal energy outside a landward area. (4) Deep-level land is any land at a depth of at least 300 metres below surface level.

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.
