Propose a change

Aden, Perim and Kuria Maria Islands Act 1967 (repealed 8.11.1995)

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

1 Relinquishment of sovereignty over Aden, Perim and Kuria Muria Islands.

(1) On the day which, in relation to any territory to which this section applies, is the appointed day that territory shall cease to form part of Her Majesty’s dominions; and on and after that day Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom shall have no responsibility for the government of that territory. (2) This section applies to the following territories, that is to say, Aden, Perim and the Kuria Muria Islands, as each of those territories is constituted immediately before the appointed day. (3) Subject to the next following subsection, in this Act “the appointed day”, in relation to all the territories specified in subsection (2) of this section, means such day as Her Majesty may by Order in Council appoint. (4) Different days may be appointed by Order in Council under this section in relation to different territories specified in subsection (2) of this section; and, if different days are so appointed, any reference in this Act to the appointed day, in relation to any such territory, shall be construed as a reference to the day so appointed in relation to that territory.

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.
