You need to find the original proposals and read them. I've looking for weeks and not found all of it. From there you then need to construct a reasoned arguement about the issue. Not hard, but time consuming.

If you rant and rave about f**ing eu this and that, your letter will be filed under "waste".

Here's one pf many guides to this.

You could also respond to this:

This is the consultation document setting out the changes and asking for responce.

And here is the original proposal. I war you it is in legaliese but not so bad as to be un readable.

It is interesting to read the provisions on modification.
