Finance (No. 2) Act 2015
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
1 Income tax lock
(1) For any tax year to which this section applies— (a) the basic rate of income tax shall not exceed 20%, (b) the higher rate of income tax shall not exceed 40%, and (c) the additional rate of income tax shall not exceed 45%. (2) This section applies to a tax year— (a) which begins after the day on which this Act is passed but before the date of the first parliamentary general election after that day, and (b) for which income tax is charged.

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.
