(2) The requirements so imposed shall have effect in relation to such an aircraft only— (a) while it is within such area as may be specified in relation to the aerodrome by order made by the Secretary of State, or (b) if no area has been so specified, while it is within the area represented by a circle with a radius of 40 kilometres from the centre of the longest runway at the aerodrome. (3) An area may be specified for the purposes of subsection (2)(a) above by description, by reference to a map or in any other way. (4) No point in the area so specified may be more than 60 kilometres in a straight line from the centre of the longest runway at the aerodrome.

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.
