Propose a change

Superannuation and other Trust Funds (Validation) Act 1927

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

4 Power on registration of funds to delete provisions for avoiding the rule against perpetuities.

(1) If upon an application for the registration under this Act of any fund whereof the rules were made before the commencement of this Act, the Authority is satisfied that the rules of the fund contain provisions which were inserted only for the purpose of avoiding the application to the trusts of the fund of the rule of law relating to perpetuities, it may, at the request of the trustees making the application, amend the rules by deleting those provisions therefrom and may, upon the like request, make any further amendments that are, in its opinion, proper in consequence of their deletion. (2) Where the rules of any fund are amended by the Authority under this section, the rules shall, when registered, have effect subject to the amendments so made.

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.
