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

122 Withdrawal of request before end of extradition hearing

(1) This section applies if at any time in the relevant period the appropriate judge is informed by the Secretary of State that a request for a person’s extradition has been withdrawn. (2) The relevant period is the period— (a) starting when the person first appears or is brought before the appropriate judge following his arrest under this Part; (b) ending when the judge orders the person’s discharge or sends the case to the Secretary of State for his decision whether the person is to be extradited. (3) The judge must order the person’s discharge. (4) If the person is not before the judge at the time the judge orders his discharge, the judge must inform him of the order as soon as practicable.

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.
