Propose a change

The Flexible Working Regulations 2014

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

5 Date when application is taken as made

(1) A flexible working application is taken as made on the day it is received. (2) Any such application is received, unless the contrary is proved— (a) Where paragraph (3) applies and the application is sent by electronic transmission, on the day of transmission; (b) if sent by post, on the day on which it would have been delivered in the ordinary course of post; and (c) if it is delivered personally, on the day of delivery. (3) This paragraph applies where the employer has agreed that the application can be sent by electronic transmission and has specified an electronic address to which the application can be sent and the electronic form to be used by the employee.

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.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

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.
