Propose a change

Children and Social Work Act 2017

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

58 Consultation

(1) Before making regulations under this Part the Secretary of State must carry out a public consultation. (2) Where the Secretary of State lays a draft of an instrument containing regulations under this Part before Parliament, it must be accompanied by a report by the Secretary of State about the consultation. (3) The duties imposed by subsections (1) and (2) do not apply to regulations under section 36 (renaming of Social Work England). (4) The duties imposed by subsections (1) and (2) do not apply where the regulations amend other regulations and, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, they do not make any substantial change.

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.
