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Rag Flock and Other Filling Materials Act 1951 (repealed 6.1.1997)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

16 Exercise of powers outside local authority’s area.

If it appears to an authorised officer of a local authority that in connection with the execution of this Act in the area of that authority it is expedient so to do, he may exercise any of the powers conferred on him by this Act within the area of any other local authority so long as the consent (which may be either general or limited to the particular occasion) of that other authority has been first obtained.

Your change, as a redline

16 Exercise of powers outside local authority’s area.

If it appears to an authorised officer of a local authority that in connection with the execution of this Act in the area of that authority it is expedient so to do, he may exercise any of the powers conferred on him by this Act within the area of any other local authority so long as the consent (which may be either general or limited to the particular occasion) of that other authority has been first obtained.

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.
