Propose a change

Harbours Act 1964

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

48A Environmental duties of harbour authorities.

It shall be the duty of a harbour authority in formulating or considering any proposals relating to its functions under any enactment to have regard to— (a) the conservation of the natural beauty of the countryside and of flora, fauna and geological or physiographical features of special interest; (b) the desirability of preserving for the public any freedom of access to places of natural beauty; and (c) the desirability of maintaining the availability to the public of any facility for visiting or inspecting any building, site or object of archaeological, architectural or historic interest; and to take into account any effect which the proposals may have on the natural beauty of the countryside, flora, fauna or any such feature or facility.

Your change, as a redline

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.
