Propose a change

Parish Councils Act 1957

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

7 Interpretation of Part I.

In this Part of this Act except so far as the context otherwise requires— “in” in a context referring to things in a road includes a reference to things under, over, across, along or upon the road; “owner” has the meaning assigned to it by section three hundred and forty-three of the Public Health Act, 1936; “public path” has the meaning assigned to it by section twenty-seven of the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act, 1949; “road” means any highway (including a public path) and any other road, lane, footway, square, court, alley or passage (whether a thoroughfare or not) to which the public has access, but does not include a special road (as defined by the Special Roads Act, 1949).

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.
