Government of Wales Act 2006
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
7 Candidates at general elections
(1) A registered political party may submit a list of candidates to be Members of the Senedd for a particular Senedd constituency at a general election. (2) The list must be submitted to the constituency returning officer. (3) The list must not include more than eight people (but may include only one). (4) The list must not include a person— (a) who is included on another list submitted under this section (whether for the constituency or another constituency); (b) who is an individual candidate to be a Member of the Senedd (whether for the constituency or another constituency). (5) A person may not be an individual candidate to be a Member of the Senedd for a constituency if that person is— (a) included on a list submitted under this section (whether for the constituency or another constituency); (b) an individual candidate to be a Member of the Senedd for another constituency. (6) In this Act “constituency returning officer”, in relation to a Senedd constituency, means the person designated as the returning officer for the constituency in accordance with an order under section 13 (power of the Welsh Ministers to make provision about elections etc.).

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.
