Propose a change

Gas Act 1986

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

41G Application by Authority for order excluding activities.

(1) Before making an application for an order providing for activities to cease to be licensable activities the Authority shall give notice— (a) stating that it proposes to make an application for an order providing for the activities to cease to be licensable activities; and (b) specifying a reasonable period (not being less than 28 days from the date of publication of the notice) within which representations or objections may be made with respect to the proposal, and shall consider any representations or objections duly made and not withdrawn. (2) The notice shall be given— (a) by serving a copy on the Secretary of State, the Health and Safety Executive , Citizens Advice and Consumer Scotland; and (b) by publishing it in such manner as the Authority considers appropriate for bringing it to the attention of persons likely to be affected by such an order. (3) An application under this section shall set out— (a) the activities which the Authority considers should cease to be licensable activities; and (b) the Authority’s reasons for proposing that the order be made.

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.
