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

83ZX Injunctions: failure to comply with certain section 83ZR sanctions

(1) If, on the application of the Bank of England, the court is satisfied— (a) that there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a compliance failure, or (b) that there has been a compliance failure and there is a reasonable likelihood that it will continue or be repeated, the court may make an order restraining the conduct constituting the failure. (2) If, on the application of the Bank, the court is satisfied— (a) that there has been a compliance failure, and (b) that there are steps which could be taken for remedying the failure, the court may make an order requiring anyone who appears to have been knowingly concerned in the failure to take such steps as the court may direct to remedy it. (3) If, on the application of the Bank of England, the court is satisfied— (a) that there may have been a compliance failure by any person, or (b) that a person may have been knowingly concerned in a compliance failure, the court may make an order restraining that person from dealing with any assets which it is satisfied the person is reasonably likely to deal with. (4) “Compliance failure” means— (a) a failure to comply with a direction under section 83ZR(1)(c) or (3)(c), or (b) a breach of a prohibition imposed under section 83ZR(1)(d). (5) The jurisdiction conferred by this section is exercisable— (a) in England and Wales and Northern Ireland, by the High Court, and (b) in Scotland, by the Court of Session. (6) In this section— (a) references to an order restraining anything are, in Scotland, to be read as references to an interdict prohibiting that thing, (b) references to remedying a failure include mitigating its effect, and (c) references to dealing with assets include disposing of them.

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.
