5 TASK 1 (10mins) 5 of 11 The law effects EVERYONE, EVERYDAY. From your school curriculum, when you can go on holiday, the age you can vote, what you can buy to immigration, housing and taxes, the law is everywhere. In a civilised society it is vital for the maintenance of order and justice. Without law there would be chaos. Laws are made and changed by politicians in the Houses of Parliament. It takes a long time for a new law to be passed, there is much discussion, voting and lobbying but to make the country fairer and better all laws start with an idea.........

6 TASK 1 (10mins) 6 of 11 What issues and problems in UK society are you passionate about? Mind map your own personal concerns and then pick your top three which you will focus on. Eg: Poverty Street Crime Social Immobility Passions/Concerns Domestic Violence Substance Abuse Obesity High salaries PollutionSpeeding

7 TASK 2 (20mins) 7 of 11 Take each of your top 3 concerns and mind map solutions to these problems. What law could be introduced to reduce the problem or eradicate it completely? PovertyObesityHigh Salaries Higher benefit payments if recipients undertake community work? Compulsory cooking/nutrition courses for new parents?? Compulsory charity donations for those earning over £200k? Outlaw zero hour contracts? Limit on Fast Food outlets in a 10 mile radius? Cap on footballers salaries and redirection into community sports? Pick your favourite idea

8 TASK 3 (45mins) 8 of 11 Now you have your idea it is time to articulate it in just 200 words. That’s not a lot so use this rough structure to help you stay within the word limit: What issue/concern are you focusing on and why is it important to you? (50 words) What is your new law or change to an existing law? (100 words) Who will the law impact? (25 words) Why will it make the country/world a better place? (25 words)

9 TASK 4 (10mins) 9 of 11 Thanks for your time and hard work! Its submission time!
