Propose a change

Enterprise Act 2002

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

16 Transfers of certain proceedings to and from Tribunal

(1) The Lord Chancellor may by regulations— (a) make provision enabling the court— (i) to transfer to the Tribunal for its determination so much of any proceedings before the court as relates to an infringement issue; and (ii) to give effect to the determination of that issue by the Tribunal; and (b) make such incidental, supplementary, consequential, transitional or saving provision as the Lord Chancellor may consider appropriate. (2) The power to make regulations under subsection (1) is exercisable by statutory instrument subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. (3) Rules of court may prescribe the procedure to be followed in connection with a transfer mentioned in subsection (1). (4) The court may transfer to the Tribunal, in accordance with rules of court, so much of any proceedings before it as relates to a claim to which section 47A of the 1998 Act applies. (5) Rules of court may make provision in connection with the transfer from the Tribunal to the court of all or any part of a claim made in proceedings under section 47A of the 1998 Act. (6) In this section— “the court” means— the High Court or the county court; or the Court of Session or a sheriff court; and “infringement issue” means any question relating to whether or not an infringement of the Chapter I prohibition or the Chapter II prohibition has been or is being committed; but otherwise any terms used in this section and Part 1 of the 1998 Act have the same meaning as they have in that Part.

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.
