The Associated British Ports (Immingham Green Energy Terminal) Order 2025
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.
Change 1
19 Authority to survey and investigate the land
(1) The undertaker may for the purposes of this Order enter on any land within the Order limits except the land shaded yellow on the land plans and, where reasonably necessary, any land which is adjacent to but outside the Order limits or which may be affected by the authorised project and— (a) survey, monitor or investigate the land (including any watercourses, groundwater, static water bodies or vegetation on the land); (b) without prejudice to the generality of sub-paragraph (a), survey, monitor or investigate the land and any buildings on that land for the purpose of investigating the potential effects of the authorised project on that land or buildings on that land or for enabling the construction, use and maintenance of the authorised project; (c) without limitation on the scope of sub-paragraph (a)— (i) make trial holes, boreholes, excavations or take horizontal cores in such positions on the land as the undertaker thinks fit to investigate the nature of the surface layer, subsoil, groundwater and other materials below ground level and remove soil, rock, water and other material samples and discharge water from sampling operations on to the land; (ii) carry out ecological or archaeological investigations and monitoring on the land, including making any excavations or trial holes on the land for such purposes; and (d) place on, leave on and remove from the land apparatus (including but not limited to welfare facilities and apparatus attached to buoys) for use in connection with the survey, monitoring or investigation of land, making of trial holes, boreholes, excavations and cores and the carrying out of ecological or archaeological investigations or monitoring. (2) The power conferred by paragraph (1) includes, without prejudice to the generality of that paragraph, the power to take, and process, samples of or from any of the following found on, in or over the land— (a) water; (b) air; (c) soil or rock; (d) flora; (e) bodily excretions, or dead bodies, of non-human creatures; or (f) any non-living thing present as a result of human action. (3) No land may be entered or equipment placed or left on or removed from the land under paragraph (1) unless at least 14 days’ notice has been served on every owner and occupier of the land. (4) Any person entering land under this article on behalf of the undertaker— (a) must, if so required, before or after entering the land, produce written evidence of their authority to do so; and (b) may take onto the land such vehicles and equipment as are necessary to carry out the survey, monitoring or investigation or to make the trial holes. (5) No surveying, monitoring or investigation to which paragraph (1) refers may be carried out under this article— (a) in land located within the boundary of any highway for which the highway authority is responsible without its consent; or (b) in a private street without the consent of the street authority, but such consent must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. (6) As soon as reasonably practicable following the completion of any activities carried out under paragraph (1), the undertaker must remove the apparatus used in connection with the activities and restore the land on which the activities were carried out to the reasonable satisfaction of the owners of the land; but the undertaker is not required to breach or fail to comply with a term of this Order. (7) The undertaker must compensate the owners and occupiers of the land for any loss or damage arising by reason of the exercise of the powers conferred by this article, such compensation to be determined, in case of dispute, as if it were a dispute under Part 1 (determination of questions of disputed compensation) of the 1961 Act. (8) Section 13 (refusal to give possession to acquiring authority) of the 1965 Act applies to the temporary use of land pursuant to this article to the same extent as it applies to the compulsory acquisition of land under this Order by virtue of section 125 (application of compulsory acquisition provisions) of the 2008 Act.

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.
