Northern Ireland Land Act 1925
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
29 Power to appoint solicitors &c., to act in place of a person in default.
(1) Where any person— (a) fails to furnish any information, map, particular, or document which under this Act it is his duty to furnish, or, in the opinion of the Judicial Commissioner, fails to carry out such duty in a satisfactory manner; or (b) wilfully fails or refuses to make title or produce evidence of title; or (c) fails to prosecute any proceedings with due diligence and effect; it shall be lawful for the Judicial Commissioner to appoint a solicitor, land agent, engineer, surveyor, valuer or land clerk to act in the matter and to carry out the instructions of the Commission; and such solicitor, land agent, engineer, surveyor, valuer or land clerk shall have all such powers as he would have had had he been duly employed by such person as aforesaid. (2) Such costs and remuneration as are approved by the Judicial Commissioner of any such solicitor, land agent, engineer, or surveyor so employed shall be payable out of the purchase money or bonus or interest thereon payable to such person as aforesaid, or may be paid by the Commission and in that case shall be recoverable by the Commission from that person, and, without prejudice to other methods of recovery, the Commission may deduct the amount thereof from any purchase money, bonus, or interest so payable.

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.
