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.

Your change, as a redline

68 Right to remuneration.

(1) An employee who is suspended from work on maternity grounds is entitled to be paid remuneration by her employer while she is so suspended. (2) An employee is not entitled to remuneration under this section in respect of any period if— (a) her employer has offered to provide her during the period with work which is suitable alternative work for her for the purposes of section 67, and (b) the employee has unreasonably refused to perform that work.

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.
