(4) The appropriate authority may by order amend subsection (3) for the purpose of substituting, for the period specified in that subsection for the time being, some other period. (5) The appropriate authority may by regulations make further provision in relation to a local authority's list of assets of community value, including (in particular) provision about— (a) the form in which the list is to be kept; (b) contents of an entry in the list (including matters not to be included in an entry); (c) modification of an entry in the list; (d) removal of an entry from the list; (e) cases where land is to be included in the list and— (i) different parts of the land are in different ownership or occupation, or (ii) there are multiple estates or interests in the land or any part or parts of it; (f) combination of the list with the local authority's list of land nominated by unsuccessful community nominations. (6) Subject to any provision made by or under this Chapter, it is for a local authority to decide the form and contents of its list of 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.

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.
