Propose a change

Education (Scotland) (War Service Superannuation) Act 1939

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

2 Contributions not to be payable except in certain circumstances.

(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in section two of the Education (Scotland) (Superannuation) Act 1925, the payment of contributions shall not be required in respect of any teacher engaged in war service for any part of the period of such service unless for that part— (a) payments are made to or in respect of him under section one of the Local Government Staffs (War Service) Act 1939; or (b) payments are made otherwise than under the said section one by the governing body or other body of managers by whom he was employed immediately before undertaking war service to supplement his war service pay; or (c) the amount of his war service pay is equal to or exceeds the amount of his salary. (2) In the application of the said section two to any period in respect of which contributions are payable by virtue of the last foregoing subsection, references in that section to the education authority, governing body, or other body of managers by whom the teacher is employed shall be construed as references to the education authority, governing body or other body of managers by whom the teacher was employed immediately before undertaking war service.

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.
