Propose a change

Miners’ Welfare Act 1952

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

12 Provisions relating to the Social Welfare Organisation.

(1) In this Act “the Social Welfare Organisation” means the Coal Industry Social Welfare Organisation incorporated under the Companies Act 1948. (2) Without prejudice to any provisions of the articles of association of the Social Welfare Organisation, any functions conferred on that Organisation by or under this Act may be delegated by that Organisation, subject to such restrictions (if any) as they may determine, to any committee or body which appears to them to be concerned with social welfare activities in the district concerned (including any committee or body established for the purpose by the said Organisation); and any reference to the said Organisation in the foregoing provisions of this Act shall be construed, in relation to any functions so delegated, as a reference to the committee or body by whom they are exercisable. (3) If a resolution is passed or an order made for the winding up of the Social Welfare Organisation, any functions of that Organisation under this Act shall be transferred to such body or person as may be prescribed by an order made by the Minister.

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.
