What to do with it
As published

189C Section 189B: supplementary provision

(1) A green deal consumer credit agreement is to be treated— (a) as an agreement for fixed-sum credit within the meaning of section 10(1)(b); (b) as a credit agreement for the purposes of sections 140A and 140B (and section 140C(1) is to be read accordingly). (2) Where a green deal consumer credit agreement is a regulated agreement within the meaning of this Act (see section 8(3)), it is to be treated as a restricted-use agreement that falls within section 11(1)(a). (3) Sections 81, 140C(2) and 176(5) do not apply in the case of a green deal consumer credit agreement. (4) A person who is not an individual is to be treated as the improver in relation to any listed provision in the first column of the table in Schedule 2A only if the corresponding entry in the second column of the table so specifies. (5) For the purposes of section 189B— (a) a green deal plan is commenced when— (i) the occupier or owner of the property signs in the prescribed manner a document in relation to the plan in accordance with section 61(1) (requirements as to form and content of regulated agreements), or (ii) if the occupier or owner of the property does not sign such a document, the green deal plan is made; (b) a person is liable to pay the energy bills for a property at any time if the person would be treated as the bill payer for the property at that time for the purposes of Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Energy Act 2011 (see section 2(3) and (10)).

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.

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.
