A proposed new law is called a bill. Bills must be agreed by both Houses of Parliament and receive Royal Assent from the Queen before they can become Acts of Parliament which make our law.
The Bill is introduced by a First Reading. This is simply an official notice that a Bill is going to be proposed and what it's about. It gives MPs time to prepare and discuss it.
Shortly afterwards comes the Second Reading. At this point the principles are considered on the floor of the House. The Bill is then sent to be looked at by small groups of MPs who examine the Bill in detail.
At the Third Reading the Bill is debated and there is a vote. If the Government has a majority, the Bill is then passed to the House of Lords.
Once a Bill has passed through both Houses, it is sent to the Queen for the Royal Assent. Once it has Royal Assent the Bill becomes an Act of Parliament. It is the law of the land.

How do you make a new law?
Laws are generally made by the legislative or governmental body of the jurisdiction. For a local law or ordinance, talk to your local town / borough board members, or bring it up at a town hall meeting. For a state law, talk to your district's state representative or senator. For a national law, talk to your US senator or representative. These people, if they agree with you, will draft a bill and introduce it to their congress. The body will vote on the bill. If both the senate and house agree, or, for a local law, a majority of the board agrees, it will be made into a law.

How are scientific laws affected by new theories?
They are unaffected because theories are explanations. Trust me! I'm a doctor! A law is really a theory that has stood the test of time. It will have been tested because experiments will have been proposed and then carried out. If they agree with the current law then the status quo remains unchanged. If a new theory comes along which challenges a currently held view or law then experiments will be proposed to test it. If they agree with the new theory then the current law may be modified or abandoned. Examples are Phlogiston, sub-atomic particles, etc.
