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.

(1) This section applies if— (a) a person in respect of whom a Part 1 warrant is issued consents under section 45 to his extradition to the category 1 territory in which the warrant was issued, and (b) the condition in subsection (2) is satisfied before the judge orders his extradition under section 46(6) or 48(3)(a). (2) The condition is that the judge is informed that— (a) a certificate has been issued under section 70 in respect of a request for the person’s extradition; (b) the request has not been disposed of. (3) The judge must not make an order under section 46(6) or 48(3) until he is informed what order has been made under section 179(2). (4) If the order under section 179(2) is for further proceedings on the warrant to be deferred until the request has been disposed of, the judge must remand the person in custody or on bail. (5) If the person is remanded in custody, the appropriate judge may later grant bail. (6) If— (a) the order under section 179(2) is for further proceedings on the warrant to be deferred until the request has been disposed of, and (b) an order is made under section 180 for proceedings on the warrant to be resumed, the period specified in section 46(6) must be taken to be 10 days starting with the day on which the order under section 180 is made.

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.
