Serious Crime Act 2007
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
46 Encouraging or assisting offences believing one or more will be committed
(1) A person commits an offence if— (a) he does an act capable of encouraging or assisting the commission of one or more of a number of offences; and (b) he believes— (i) that one or more of those offences will be committed (but has no belief as to which); and (ii) that his act will encourage or assist the commission of one or more of them. (2) It is immaterial for the purposes of subsection (1)(b)(ii) whether the person has any belief as to which offence will be encouraged or assisted. (3) If a person is charged with an offence under subsection (1)— (a) the indictment must specify the offences alleged to be the “number of offences” mentioned in paragraph (a) of that subsection; but (b) nothing in paragraph (a) requires all the offences potentially comprised in that number to be specified. (4) In relation to an offence under this section, reference in this Part to the offences specified in the indictment is to the offences specified by virtue of subsection (3)(a).

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.
