Museums and Galleries Admission Charges Act 1972
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 Liberty to charge for admission.
(1) Notwithstanding anything in any enactment, the trustees or other governing body of any of the institutions mentioned below may make such charges for admission to any museum or gallery as they may determine. The institutions to which this subsection applies are— (a) the British Museum; (b) the Natural History Museum; (c) the National Museums of Scotland; (d) the National Galleries of Scotland. (2) In so far as the provisions of any enactment, contract, trust deed or other instrument are, in the opinion of the Secretary of State, inconsistent with the making of charges for admission to— (a) the National Museums of Scotland; (b) the National Galleries of Scotland; (c) any museum or gallery in Scotland for which he is responsible; he may by order vary or revoke such provisions: Provided that before making an order under this subsection the Secretary of State shall consult the governing body concerned. (3) The power to make orders under subsection (2) above shall be exercisable by statutory instrument; and any instrument containing such an order 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.
