Propose a change

Policyholders Protection Act 1975 (repealed)

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

7 Third-party rights against insurance companies in road traffic cases.

Without prejudice to section 6 above, but subject to sections 9, 13 and 14 below, it shall be the duty of the Board to secure that a sum equal to the full amount of any liability of a company in liquidation in respect of a sum payable to a person entitled to the benefit of a judgment under— (a) section 149 of the Road Traffic Act 1972 or section 151 of the Road Traffic Act 1988 (duty of insurers to satisfy judgment against persons insured or secured against third-party risks); or (b) Article 98 of the Road Traffic (Northern Ireland) Order 1981 (court orders for recovery from insurers of sums due under unsatisfied judgments against persons insured or secured by them); is paid to that person as soon as reasonably practicable after the beginning of the liquidation.

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.
