Propose a change

Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014

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

22 Rules of agricultural, horticultural or forestry society may provide for loans without security

(1) This section applies to a registered society (or a society to be registered under this Act) if— (a) the society consists mainly of members who are— (i) producers of agricultural or horticultural produce or persons engaged in forestry, or (ii) organisations of such producers or persons, and (b) the society's object or principal object is the making to its members of advances of money for agricultural, horticultural or forestry purposes. (2) The fact that the society's rules provide (or would if amended provide) for the making of such advances without security is not a ground for refusing to register those rules (or the amendment).

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.
