Probation Service Act 1993 (repealed)
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
26 Regulation of community orders.
(1) The Secretary of State may make rules for regulating— (a) the supervision of persons subject to probation orders; (b) the arrangements to be made under this Act for persons subject to community service orders to perform work and the performance of such work. (2) Rules under subsection (1) may, without prejudice to the generality of that subsection, regulate the functions of— (a) probation officers who are responsible for the supervision of offenders subject to probation orders; and (b) probation officers or other persons who are, in relation to persons subject to community service orders, responsible officers within the meaning of the Powers of Criminal Courts (Sentencing) Act 2000. (3) Rules under subsection (1)(b) above may in particular make provision— (a) limiting the number of hours of work to be done by a person on any one day; (b) as to the reckoning of hours worked and the keeping of work records; and (c) for the payment of travelling and other expenses in connection with the performance of work.

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.
