Propose a change

Atomic Energy Authority (Weapons Group) Act 1973

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.

What to do with it
As published

6 Powers of Authority in relation to atomic weapons development, etc.

(1) The Authority shall not by virtue of anything in section 2 of the Atomic Energy Authority Act 1954 (general powers in relation to production, use and disposal of atomic energy and to carrying out research, etc.) have power to engage in any work, whether by way of research, experiment, development, production or otherwise, on any explosive nuclear device, whether for war-like applications or otherwise, except in accordance with arrangements made with the Secretary of State. (2) In section 2(2) of the said Act of 1954, in paragraph (i) of the proviso (which precludes the Authority from developing or producing weapons otherwise than in accordance with such arrangements, but makes an exception for certain work on explosive nuclear assemblies) the words from “except that” to the end of the paragraph are hereby repealed.

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.
