Propose a change

Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990

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.

26C Listed building consent orders

(1) The Secretary of State may by order (a “listed building consent order”) grant listed building consent under section 8(1) in respect of works of any description for the alteration or extension of listed buildings of any description .... (2) The consent may be granted subject to conditions specified in the order. (3) Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (2), the conditions that may be specified include any conditions subject to which listed building consent may be granted under section 16. (4) A listed building consent order may (without prejudice to section 17(2)) give the local planning authority power to require details of works to be approved by them, and may grant consent subject to conditions with respect to— (a) the making of an application to the authority for a determination as to whether such approval is required, and (b) the outcome of such an application or the way it is dealt with. (5) A listed building consent order may enable the Secretary of State or the local planning authority to direct that consent granted by the order does not apply— (a) to a listed building specified in the direction; (b) to listed buildings of a description specified in the direction; (c) to listed buildings in an area specified in the direction. (6) An order may in particular make provision about the making, coming into force, variation and revocation of such a direction, including provision conferring powers on the Secretary of State in relation to directions by a local planning authority. (7) Nothing in sections 10 to 26 applies in relation to listed building consent granted by a listed building consent order; but that does not affect the application of sections 20, 21 and 22 in relation to an application for approval required by a condition to which consent is subject.

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.
