Propose a change

Hill Farming Act 1985

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

Your change, as a redline

1 Burning of bracken, gorse and vaccinium.

The power under section 20 of the Hill Farming Act 1946 to make regulations with respect to the burning of heather and grass in England and Wales shall apply also to the burning of bracken, gorse and vaccinium; and accordingly, for the words “and grass”— (a) in both places where they occur in subsection (1) of that section; and (b) in section 37(1)(g) of that Act (which lists regulations under section 20 among the instruments under that Act which are subject to negative resolution), there shall be substituted the words “, grass, bracken, gorse and vaccinium”.

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.
