Propose a change

Clean Air Act 1993

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

26A Duty of local authority to reimburse for adaptations of vessels in England

(1) This section applies where— (a) a local authority in England makes a smoke control order, (b) as a result of the order a vessel will, when the order comes into operation, be within a smoke control area and subject to the operation of Schedule 1A, (c) the owner or occupier of the vessel has a right to moor the vessel at a single mooring place within that area for the period which— (i) begins on the day on which the smoke control order is made, and (ii) ends six months after it comes into operation, and (d) the owner or occupier does not have access to a mains electricity or gas supply at the mooring place. (2) If— (a) before the coming into operation of the order, the owner or occupier incurs expenditure on adaptations to or in connection with the vessel to avoid the imposition of a penalty under Schedule 1A, (b) the expenditure is incurred with the approval of the local authority given for the purpose of this section, and (c) the adaptations are completed to the satisfaction of the local authority, the authority must pay to the owner or occupier of the vessel 70% of the expenditure. (3) That amount must be paid in equal instalments every month for a period of six months. (4) But the duty to pay instalments under this section ceases if, at any time after the coming into operation of the smoke control order— (a) the owner or occupier of the vessel ceases to have the right to moor the vessel at the single mooring place mentioned in subsection (1)(c), or (b) the vessel is absent from the smoke control area for a period of, or periods together totalling, three months.

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.
