Propose a change

Duchy of Cornwall Management Act 1982

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

7 Power of Treasury to authorise transactions.

(1) Any transaction affecting Duchy property which would not otherwise be authorised may be entered into if the Treasury have authorised it on an application made by or on behalf of the Duke of Cornwall. (2) The Treasury may authorise a transaction under this section if they are satisfied that it will be conductive to the good management of the Duchy. (3) Where a transaction affects land belonging to the Duchy, the Treasury in considering under subsection (2) above whether the transaction will be conducive to the good management of the Duchy shall take into account any effect the transaction would have on persons living on, or in the vicinity of, the land. (4) An authorisation may be given under this section for a particular transaction or for transactions of a particular description and may be given either with or without any condition or restriction, as the Treasury may think fit.

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.
