The Non-Domestic Rating (Heat Networks Relief) (England) Regulations 2023

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.

As published

2 Conditions for relief

(1) For the purposes of paragraph 6(1)(b) of Schedule 4ZA to the Act, the conditions to be satisfied are that, for the period of 12 months beginning with the chargeable day concerned, it appears to the appropriate authority that the thermal energy supplied by the heat network will be derived from a low carbon source. (2) The low carbon source referred to in paragraph (1) may be located on the hereditament concerned or on a different hereditament. (3) In this regulation— “low carbon source” is a source which generates heat, of which at least— 75% is cogeneration heat, 50% is renewable heat; 50% is waste heat, or 75% is a combination of renewable, waste or cogeneration heat; “cogeneration heat” is heat which is produced in the same process and at the same time as electrical or mechanical energy; “renewable heat” is heat which is generated by excepted renewables plant and machinery, as defined in paragraph (e) in Class 1 of the Schedule to the Valuation for Rating (Plant and Machinery) (England) Regulations 2000; “waste heat” is heat which is unavoidably generated as a by-product of another process and which would have no use other than for the purposes of a heat network.

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.

How this law is officially changed

Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.

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.
