Propose a change

The Children and Families Act 2014 (Transitional and Saving Provisions) (No. 2) Order 2014

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.

16 Exceptions to Articles 12 to 15: exceptional personal circumstances and appeals

(1) Articles 12 to 15 do not apply in relation to a child or young person at any time when— (a) exceptional personal circumstances affect the child, the child’s parent or the young person, and those circumstances mean that it is not appropriate to carry out an EHC needs assessment for the child or young person, in which case paragraph (2) applies; or (b) the parent of a child or young person had brought an appeal under section 326 of EA 1996 against any of the matters listed in subsection (1A) of that section, or under paragraph 8 of Schedule 27 to EA 1996, but the appeal had not been fully determined, in which case paragraph (3) applies. (2) In the circumstances set out in paragraph (1)(a) the local authority that maintains the statement for the child or young person must secure that an EHC needs assessment for him or her is carried out and concluded as soon as is reasonably practicable after it becomes appropriate to carry out that assessment. (3) In the circumstances set out in paragraph (1)(b) the local authority that maintains the statement for the child or young person must secure that an EHC needs assessment for him or her is carried out and concluded as soon as is reasonably practicable after the appeal has been fully determined.

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.
