Propose a change

Extradition Act 2003

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

101 Making of order for extradition or discharge

(1) An order to which this section applies must be made under the hand of one of these— (a) the Secretary of State; (b) a Minister of State; (c) a Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State; (d) a senior official. (2) But, in relation to Scotland, an order to which this section applies must be made under the hand of one of these— (a) a member of the Scottish Executive or a junior Scottish Minister; (b) a senior official who is a member of the staff of the Scottish Administration. (3) This section applies to— (a) an order under section 93 for a person’s extradition; (b) an order under section 93 or 123 for a person’s discharge. (4) A senior official is— (a) a member of the Senior Civil Service; (b) a member of the Senior Management Structure of Her Majesty’s Diplomatic Service. (5) If it appears to the Secretary of State that it is necessary to do so in consequence of any changes to the structure or grading of the statutory civil service (or any part of it), he may by order make such amendments to subsection (4) as appear to him appropriate to preserve (so far as practicable) the effect of that subsection. (6) In subsection (5) “the statutory civil service” means the civil service within the meaning of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010 (see section 1(4) of that Act).

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.
