Propose a change

Courts Act 2003

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

40 Regulations about payments, accounting and banking by designated officers

(1) The Lord Chancellor may, with the concurrence of the Treasury, make regulations— (a) as to the times at which, and the manner in which, a designated officer is to pay sums payable by him in his capacity as such to the Lord Chancellor or any other person, (b) requiring the keeping of accounts by designated officers in respect of sums received by them, (c) as to the production, inspection and audit of accounts required to be kept, and (d) requiring designated officers to use— (i) specified banking arrangements or facilities, or (ii) banking arrangements or facilities of a specified description, in relation to sums received by them. (2) Regulations under this section may make different provision in relation to different descriptions of designated officer.

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.
