Propose a change

The Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024

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.

What to do with it
As published

20 Reconsideration of rejection of response

(1) A respondent whose response has been rejected under rule 18 (rejection: response form not used or failure to supply minimum information) or 19 (rejection: response form presented late) may apply for a reconsideration on the basis that the decision to reject was wrong or, in the case of a rejection under rule 18, on the basis that the notified defect can be rectified. (2) An application under paragraph (1) must be in writing and it must be received by the Tribunal within 14 days of the date that the notice of rejection was sent. It must explain why the decision to reject is wrong or rectify the defect, and it must state whether the respondent requests a hearing. (3) If the respondent does not request a hearing, or the Tribunal decides, on considering the application, that the response is to be accepted in full, the Tribunal must determine the application without a hearing. Otherwise the application must be considered at a hearing attended only by the respondent. (4) If the Tribunal decides that the decision to reject the response was correct but that the defect has been rectified, the response must be treated as presented on the date that the application containing the rectification was received by the Tribunal (but the Tribunal may extend time under rule 5(7) (time)).

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.
