113C Advanced quality partnership schemes
(1) A local transport authority whose area is in England, or two or more such authorities acting jointly, may make an advanced quality partnership scheme if they are satisfied that the scheme will contribute to the implementation of their local transport policies.
(2) An advanced quality partnership scheme is—
(a) a scheme falling within subsection (3) or (4), or
(b) a scheme falling within both subsection (3) and subsection (4).
(3) A scheme falls within this subsection if it is a scheme under which—
(a) the authority or authorities provide particular facilities in the whole or part of their area, or combined area, and
(b) operators of local services who wish to use those facilities must undertake to provide local services of a particular standard when using them.
(4) A scheme falls within this subsection if it is a scheme under which—
(a) the authority or authorities take particular measures in relation to routes in the whole or part of their area, or combined area, that are served, or proposed to be served, by local services, and
(b) operators of local services who wish to provide local services with stopping places on those routes must undertake to provide local services of a particular standard when providing such local services on those routes.
(5) A scheme may not be made unless the authority or authorities are satisfied that—
(a) the steps to be taken by the authority or authorities under the scheme, and
(b) the provision of local services of the standard or standards required by undertakings given under the scheme,
are likely to achieve one or more of the outcomes described in subsection (6) in relation to the whole or part of their area, or combined area.
(6) The outcomes mentioned in subsection (5) are—
(a) an improvement in the quality of local services that benefits persons using those services;

(c) an increase in the use of local services or an end to, or a reduction in, a decline in the use of local services.
(7) An advanced quality partnership scheme may not be made unless the authority or authorities have complied with the notice and consultation requirements imposed by section 113G.

(a) different facilities to be provided under the scheme,
(b) different measures to be taken under the scheme, or
(c) different standards of services to be provided under the scheme,

(9) An advanced quality partnership scheme must include a description of the authority's or authorities' plans for consulting such organisations appearing to the authority or authorities to be representative of users of local services as they think fit in order to seek their views on how well the scheme is working.
(10) In carrying out their functions under this Part in relation to advanced quality partnership schemes, local transport authorities whose areas are in England must co-operate with one another.

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.

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.
