(2) A local authority must— (a) by the end of the initial review period, and (b) as soon as reasonably practicable after each review date, consider whether there is any land in its area (whether or not already in its list of assets of community value) which in the opinion of the authority falls within subsection (3). (3) Land falls within this subsection if it is both— (a) land of community value, and (b) a sporting asset of community value. (4) Where land falls within subsection (3), the local authority must— (a) include the land in its list of assets of community value (if not already so included), and (b) include the land in the category of the list for sporting assets of community value.

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.
