Propose a change

Health and Medicines Act 1988

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

18 Transfer of staff from civil service to Health Service.

Where a person becomes an employee of a body constituted under the National Health Service Act 2006 or the National Health Service (Wales) Act 2006 (other than an NHS trust or an NHS foundation trust), or the National Health Service (Scotland) Act 1978 ... on direct transfer from employment in the civil service of the State, his period of employment in the civil service of the State at the time of the transfer shall count for the purposes of the Employment Rights Act 1996 as a period of employment by the body whose employee he becomes, and the transfer shall not break the continuity of the period of employment or give rise to any right to a redundancy payment.

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.
