Propose a change

Public Health Act 1936

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

(1) An order made by the Minister under the foregoing provisions of this Part of this Act constituting a . . . united district, or such a joint board as is mentioned in the last preceding section, may contain such incidental, consequential and supplementary provisions as appear to him to be necessary or proper for bringing the order into operation and giving full effect thereto and, in particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing words, provisions— (a) for the settlement of any differences arising in consequence of the operation of the order, between districts, parishes or other areas; (b) for the transfer of property and liabilities, and the making of any such adjustment of accounts or apportionment of liabilities between districts, parishes or other areas as may be rendered necessary by the operation of the order; and (c) as to the persons by and to whom any moneys found to be due are to be paid, and the raising of such moneys. (2) Any such order as aforesaid, . . . , may be amended or revoked by a subsequent order made by the Minister, but, where the Minister proposes to make an order under this subsection, he shall give notice thereof to . . . joint board concerned and to every authority or council which is, or under the proposed order will be, a constituent authority or council, and, if within twenty-eight days after such notice has been given to any such authority, board or council they give notice to the Minister that they object to the proposal and the objection is not withdrawn, any order made by the Minister shall be subject to special Parliamentary procedure. (3) Any reference in this Act to an order constituting a . . . united district, or joint board shall be construed as including a reference to any order made under this section for the amendment of the original order.

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.
