Propose a change

Local Government Finance Act 1988

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.

84P Information deadlines

(1) The Welsh Ministers may set a deadline for the receipt of information to be taken into account by them when making a calculation — (a) under section 84J(1) or by virtue of section 84J(2), or (b) under section 84M(2) or by virtue of section 84M(4). (2) Different deadlines may be set under subsection (1) in relation to different kinds of information. (3) A deadline under subsection (1) shall have effect only if the Welsh Ministers notify each receiving authority concerned of the deadline and of the information to which it relates. (4) Notification under subsection (3) may be given at any time before the making of the calculation to which the deadline relates, including a time before the making of a determination under section 84F for the year concerned. (5) When making a calculation in relation to which a deadline under subsection (1) has effect, the Welsh Ministers shall leave information to which the deadline applies out of account if it is received after the passing of the deadline.

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.
