Propose a change

Civil Aviation Act 1949

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

56 Custody and disposal of lost property

The Minister may by regulations make provision for securing the safe custody and re-delivery of any property which, while not in proper custody, is found on any premises belonging to him or under his control, or on any premises occupied by any of the Airways Corporations or in any aircraft on any such premises; and any such regulations may in particular— (a) provide for requiring charges to be paid in respect of any such property before it is re-delivered; and (b) provide for authorising the disposal of any such property if it is not re-delivered before the expiration of such period as may be specified in the regulations.

Your change, as a redline

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.
