Bank of England Act 1998
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
3D Publication of reports of performance reviews
(1) The Bank must give the Treasury a copy of any report made to the court of directors by a person appointed under section 3C to conduct a performance review (as defined by subsection (3) of that section). (2) Subject to subsection (3), the Bank must also publish the report. (3) Subsection (2) does not require the publication of information whose publication at the time when the report is made would in the opinion of the court of directors of the Bank be against the public interest. (4) Where the court of directors decides under subsection (3) that publication of information at the time when the report is made would be against the public interest, it must keep under consideration the question of whether publication of the information would still be against the public interest. (5) Where the court of directors decides that publication of any information is no longer against the public interest, the Bank must publish the information. (6) The Treasury must lay before Parliament a copy of any report or other information published by the Bank under this section.

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.
