Propose a change

Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Act 2002

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.

82 Right to obtain information

(1) A company which is a RTM company in relation to any premises may give to any person a notice requiring him to provide the company with any information— (a) which is in his possession or control, and (b) which the company reasonably requires for ascertaining the particulars required by or by virtue of section 80 to be included in a claim notice for claiming to acquire the right to manage the premises. (2) Where the information is recorded in a document in the person’s possession or control, the RTM company may give him a notice requiring him— (a) to permit any person authorised to act on behalf of the company at any reasonable time to inspect the document (or, if the information is recorded in the document in a form in which it is not readily intelligible, to give any such person access to it in a readily intelligible form), and (b) to supply the company with a copy of the document containing the information in a readily intelligible form .... (3) A person to whom a notice is given must comply with it within the period of 28 days beginning with the day on which it is given. (4) The RTM company is liable for the reasonable costs incurred by a person in complying (in accordance with this section) with a notice under this section. (5) Any question arising in relation to the amount of the costs payable by the RTM company is, in default of agreement, to be determined by the appropriate tribunal.

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.
