Propose a change

Rag Flock and Other Filling Materials Act 1951 (repealed 6.1.1997)

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

12 Duty of local authorities to enforce this Act.

(1) It shall be the duty of every local authority within their area to carry into execution and enforce this Act with a view to securing the use of clean filling materials. (2) It shall, in particular, be the duty of a local authority to secure the inspection of premises within their area registered or licensed under this Act as often as may appear to them to be necessary for the proper enforcement of this Act. (3) Nothing in this section shall be construed as authorising a local authority in Scotland to institute proceedings for an offence against this Act.

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.
