The Commons Registration (England) 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.

As published

9 Register maps

(1) Subject to paragraph (4), every registration authority must, for each of its registers, keep up to date a register map showing all the land registered in that register, in accordance with this regulation. (2) Every register map is to be based on the Ordnance Map. (3) A register map may consist of one or more sheets, and further sheets may be added from time to time as necessary. (4) Where any sheet of a register map was compiled before 1st July 1968, the registration authority— (a) may retain that sheet as, or as part of, the register map in its existing form until the first occasion on which that sheet is required to be amended; and (b) must, on or before that occasion, prepare a fresh edition of that sheet which complies with this regulation. (5) Where a register map consists of more than one sheet— (a) each sheet must bear a distinguishing number; and (b) the sheets must be bound together, but so that sheets can be added or removed without damage. (6) On every register map consisting of one sheet, and on every sheet of a register map consisting of more than one sheet— (a) there must be included an entry in accordance with Standard Entry 1; and (b) that entry must be stamped by, and signed on behalf of, the registration authority. (7) Where the registration authority considers it expedient to show any details on a larger scale than the scale of its register map, it may insert an inset map for that purpose. (8) Any new sheet which is added to a register map, or any fresh edition of a register map or sheet of a register map— (a) where the land to be described consists wholly or predominantly of moorland, must be on a scale of not less than 1:10,560 (six inches to one mile); and (b) in all other cases, must be on a scale of not less than 1:2,500. (9) If an existing register map is to be amended (other than by adding a new sheet), the amendment must be shown, if necessary by means of an inset map— (a) if the land to which the amendment relates consists wholly or predominantly of moorland, on a scale of not less than 1:10,560 (six inches to one mile); and (b) in all other cases, on a scale of not less than 1:2,500.

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.
