Propose a change

Militia (Lands and Buildings) Act 1873

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

7 Dealings with lands of the Duchy of Lancaster for the purposes of the Act.

The Chancellor and council for the time being of the Duchy of Lancaster may, if they think fit, from time to time contract and agree with the Secretary of State for Defence, for the sale of, and may absolutely make sale and dispose of, for such sum or sums of money as to the said Chancellor and council appear sufficient consideration for the same, any lands or rights belonging to Her Majesty in right of the said Duchy, which for the purposes of the Defence Acts, 1842 and 1860, the said Secretary of State may from time to time deem it expedient to purchase, and such lands or rights may be granted and assured to the said Secretary of State, and the said moneys shall be paid and dealt with, as if the said lands or rights had been sold under the authority of the Duchy of Lancaster Lands Act, 1855.

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.
