Propose a change

International Development 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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

7 Terms on which assistance is provided

(1) The Minister may provide assistance under this Act on such terms and conditions (if any) as the Minister may determine. (2) Assistance, other than financial assistance, may be provided— (a) free of charge, or (b) on such terms as to payment as the Minister may determine. (3) Financial assistance (other than a grant) may be provided under this Act by the Secretary of State only if the Treasury have approved the terms and conditions on which it is provided. (4) Approval may be given either with respect to a particular case or with respect to a class of cases.

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.
