Probation Service Act 1993 (repealed)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
8 Provision of financial assistance.
(1) It is the duty of a probation committee to make such payments and to such persons as may be prescribed in respect of persons accommodated in bail hostels and probation hostels. (2) A probation committee may, in such cases and in such manner as may be prescribed, give financial and other assistance— (a) to persons remanded on bail; and (b) to persons in relation to whom probation officers appointed for their area have responsibilities.

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.
