Propose a change

Consumer Credit Act 1974

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

93 Interest not to be increased on default.

The debtor under a regulated consumer credit agreement shall not be obliged to pay interest on sums which, in breach of the agreement, are unpaid by him at a rate— (a) where the total charge for credit includes an item in respect of interest, exceeding the rate of that interest, or (b) in any other case, exceeding what would be the rate of the total charge for credit if any items included in the total charge for credit by virtue of rules made by the FCA under paragraph (2)(d) of article 60M of the Regulated Activities Order were disregarded.

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.
