Propose a change

The Building (Amendment) (England) Regulations 2024

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

What to do with it
As published

3 Transitional provision

(1) The amendments made by regulation 2 do not apply in relation to building work on a particular building where a building notice, an initial notice, or an application for building control approval with full plans, has been given to the relevant authority in respect of that building before 1st October 2024 and either the building work to which it relates is sufficiently progressed before that day or is sufficiently progressed within the period of 6 months beginning on that day. (2) For the purpose of this transitional provision, building work is to be regarded as ‘sufficiently progressed’— (a) where the building work consists of the construction of a building, when the pouring of concrete for the permanent placement of the trench, pad or raft foundations has started, or the permanent placement of piling has started, (b) where the building work consists of work to an existing building, when that work has started, or (c) where the building work consists of a material change of use of a building, when work to effect that change of use has started. (3) In this regulation, “application for building control approval with full plans”, “building notice”, “initial notice” and “relevant authority” have the meanings given in regulation 2(1) of the Building Regulations 2010.

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.

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.
