Propose a change

Sexual Offences Act 2003

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

103G SHPOs and interim SHPOs: notification requirements

(1) Where— (a) a sexual harm prevention order is made in respect of a defendant who was a relevant offender immediately before the making of the order, and (b) the defendant would (apart from this subsection) cease to be subject to the notification requirements of this Part while the order (as renewed from time to time) has effect, the defendant remains subject to the notification requirements. (2) Where a sexual harm prevention order is made in respect of a defendant who was not a relevant offender immediately before the making of the order— (a) the order causes the defendant to become subject to the notification requirements of this Part from the making of the order until the order (as renewed from time to time) ceases to have effect, and (b) this Part applies to the defendant, subject to the modification set out in subsection (3). (3) The “relevant date” is the date of service of the order. (4) Subsections (1) to (3) apply to an interim sexual harm prevention order as if references to a sexual harm prevention order were references to an interim sexual harm prevention order, and with the omission of “(as renewed from time to time)” in both places. (5) Where— (a) a sexual harm prevention order is in effect in relation to a relevant sex offender (within the meaning of section 88A), and (b) by virtue of section 88F or 88G the relevant sex offender ceases to be subject to the notification requirements of this Part, the sexual harm prevention order ceases to have effect.

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.
