Health Service Commissioners (Amendment) Act 1996
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.
Change 1
5 Availability of other remedy.
In section 4 of the 1993 Act (availability of other remedy) after subsection (3) there shall be inserted— (4) Subsection (5) applies where— (a) action by reference to which a complaint is made under section 3(1), (1A) or (1C) is action by reference to which a complaint can be made under a procedure operated by a health service body, a family health service provider or an independent provider, and (b) subsection (1), (2) or (3) does not apply as regards the action. (5) In such a case a Commissioner shall not conduct an investigation in respect of the action unless he is satisfied that— (a) the other procedure has been invoked and exhausted, or (b) in the particular circumstances it is not reasonable to expect that procedure to be invoked or (as the case may be) exhausted. (6) Section 1(2) of the Hospital Complaints Procedure Act 1985 (which provides that no right of appeal etc. conferred under section 1 of that Act is to preclude an investigation under this Act) shall have effect subject to subsection (5) above.

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.

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.
