Propose a change

Food Safety Act 1990

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

17 Enforcement of EU provisions.

(1) The Secretary of State may by regulations make such provision with respect to food, food sources or contact materials, including in particular provision for prohibiting or regulating the carrying out of commercial operations with respect to food, food sources or contact materials, as appears to him to be called for by any EU obligation. (2) As respects any directly applicable EU provision which relates to food, food sources or contact materials and for which, in his opinion, it is appropriate to provide under this Act, the Secretary of State may by regulations— (a) make such provision as he considers necessary or expedient for the purpose of securing that the EU provision is administered, executed and enforced under this Act; and (b) apply such of the provisions of this Act as may be specified in the regulations in relation to the EU provision with such modifications, if any, as may be so specified. (3) In subsections (1) and (2) above references to food or food sources shall be construed in accordance with section 16(5) above.

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.
