Propose a change

Public Utilities Street Works Act 1950 (repealed 1.1.1993)

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

14 Provision as to default in removing apparatus placed temporarily.

Where there is placed in a street other than a maintainable highwayroad other than a public road apparatus required only in connection with the doing of building or other work on land adjacent to the streetroad and the placing thereof is a code-regulated work, if the apparatus is not removed on completion of the building or other work in question, the streetroads authority or streetroad managers may give the undertakers notice requiring them to remove it, and if it is not removed within eight days from the giving of such a notice, the authority or managers may remove it and the undertakers shall pay to the authority or managers an amount equal to the cost reasonably incurred by them of its removal and disposal and of reinstating and making good the streetroad after its removal.

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.
