Propose a change

Commission Regulation (EEC) No 3440/84 of 6 December 1984 on the attachment of devices to trawls, Danish seines and similar nets

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

Article 10 Round straps

1. Round straps are ring-shaped ropes which encircle the codend or the strengthening bag at regular intervals and which are attached to it. 2. The length of a round strap shall be not less than 40 % of the circumference of the codend, the circumference being measured as the product of the number of meshes in the circumference of the codend multiplied by the actual mesh size, except for the rearmost round strap called ‘back strap’ if it is attached not more than 2 metres from the codline meshes, measured when the meshes are stretched lengthwise. 3. The distance separating two successive round straps shall be not less than 1 metre. 4. A round strap may encircle the strengthening bags but may not encircle a top-side or bottom-side chafer.

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.
