Propose a change

Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981

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

14L Enforcement of operations under species control orders

(1) This section applies where a relevant body considers— (a) that any operation required to be carried out by a species control order it has made has not been carried out within the period or by the date specified in it; or (b) that any such operation has been carried out otherwise than in the manner required under the order. (2) The relevant body— (a) may carry out the operation, or such further work as is necessary to ensure that it is carried out, in the manner required under the order; (b) is not required to make any payment (and may recover any payments made) in pursuance of the species control order in relation to the operation in question; and (c) may recover from the person whom the species control order required to carry out the operation any expenses reasonably incurred by it in doing so (less any payment which the relevant body is required to make in relation to the carrying out of the operation under the order by virtue of section 14F(2)(a)).

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.
