Propose a change

Employment Rights Act 1996

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

43F Disclosure to prescribed person.

(1) A qualifying disclosure is made in accordance with this section if the worker— (a) makes the disclosure ... to a person prescribed by an order made by the Secretary of State for the purposes of this section, and (b) reasonably believes— (i) that the relevant failure falls within any description of matters in respect of which that person is so prescribed, and (ii) that the information disclosed, and any allegation contained in it, are substantially true. (2) An order prescribing persons for the purposes of this section may specify persons or descriptions of persons, and shall specify the descriptions of matters in respect of which each person, or persons of each description, is or are prescribed.

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.
