(2) The specifications determined in accordance with paragraph (1) must be consistent with any objectives set out in relevant public transport policies, and both the specifications and the related compensation of the net financial effect on the operator of the public service obligations must be designed to— (a) achieve those objectives in a cost-effective manner, and (b) financially sustain the provision of public passenger transport services in the long term, in accordance with the requirements laid down in the relevant public transport policies.

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.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

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.
