Charities Act 1985 (repealed)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
5 Financial limits.
(1) The Secretary of State may, if he thinks it expedient with a view to increasing the number of charities which may take advantage of the provisions of the Charities Acts specially applicable to small charities, by order in a statutory instrument, alter the money sums specified in— (a) section 18(5) of the Act of 1960 (persons who may, in the case of small charities, apply to the Commissioners for exercise of their jurisdiction under that section), and (b) section 3(2) of this Act, or either of those sums. (2) The Secretary of State may, if he thinks it expedient in consequence of changes in the value of money, by order in a statutory instrument, alter the money sums specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 4(1) of this Act. (3) A statutory instrument under this section shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.

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.
