Propose a change

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (Emissions and Verification) Regulations 2026

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

16 Record keeping requirements

(1) A registered person or registrable person who makes a return to HMRC for a CBAM good must keep the verification report or good-specific verification summary for the emissions intensity submitted on the return. (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to a return for a CBAM good to which regulation 4 applies. (3) The verification report or good-specific verification summary must be kept for a period of 6 years, beginning with the day after the accounting period to which the records relate. (4) The Commissioners may publish a notice specifying what is meant by “good-specific verification summary”.

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.
