As published

356JD Meaning of “cluster area”

(1) In this Part “cluster area” means an offshore area which the OGA determines to be a cluster area. (2) A cluster area is treated as not including any previously authorised oil field (or any part of such an oil field) (see section 356JDA). (3) An area is “offshore” for the purposes of this section if the whole of it lies on the seaward side of the baselines from which the territorial sea of the United Kingdom is measured. (4) Before determining an area to be a cluster area the OGA must— (a) give written notice of the proposed determination to every person who is a licensee in respect of a licensed area or sub-area which is wholly or partly included in the proposed cluster area and to any other licensee whose interests appear to the OGA to be affected, and (b) publish a notice of the proposed determination on a website that is, and indicates that it is, kept by or on behalf of the OGA. (5) The OGA must consider any representations made in writing and within 30 days of the date of the publication of the notice under subsection (4)(b) (or, in the case of representations made by a person to whom notice is given under subsection (4)(a), within 30 days of receipt of the notice, if later). (6) A determination under this section— (a) has effect from the day on which it is published, (b) may be in any form the OGA thinks appropriate, and (c) must assign to the cluster area an identifying number or other designation. (7) After making a determination the OGA must— (a) give written notice of the determination to every person who is a licensee in respect of a licensed area or sub-area which is wholly or partly included in the cluster area and any other person to whom notice of the proposed determination was given; (b) publish a notice of the determination on a website that is, and indicates that it is, kept by or on behalf of the OGA. (8) The OGA may vary or revoke a determination made under this section, and subsections (4), (5), (6)(a) and (b) and (7) are to apply as if the variation or revocation were a new determination.

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.

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.
