Propose a change

Banking Act 2009

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

54 Independent valuer: compensation scheme order or bail-in compensation order

(1) A compensation scheme order or bail-in compensation order may provide for the amount of any compensation payable to be determined by a person appointed in accordance with the order (the “independent valuer”); and subsections (2) to (5) apply to an order which includes provision for an independent valuer. (2) An order must provide for the independent valuer to be appointed by a person appointed by the Treasury (“the appointing person”). (3) An order may either— (a) require the Treasury to make arrangements to identify a number of possible independent valuers, one of whom is to be selected by the appointing person, or (b) require the appointing person to make arrangements to select the independent valuer, having regard to any criteria specified in the order. (4) The independent valuer may be removed only— (a) on the grounds of incapacity or serious misconduct, and (b) by a person specified by the Treasury in accordance with the compensation scheme order or bail-in compensation order. (5) An order must include provision for resignation and replacement of the independent valuer (and subsections (2) and (3) apply to replacement as to the first appointment).

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.
