Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
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
112 Recovery of expenditure on support: misrepresentation etc.
(1) This section applies if, on an application made by the Secretary of State, the court determines that— (a) a person (“A”) has misrepresented or failed to disclose a material fact (whether fraudulently or otherwise); and (b) as a consequence of the misrepresentation or failure, support has been provided under section 95 or 98 (whether or not to A). (2) If the support was provided by the Secretary of State, the court may order A to pay to the Secretary of State an amount representing the monetary value of the support which would not have been provided but for A’s misrepresentation or failure. (3) If the support was provided by another person (“B”) in accordance with arrangements made with the Secretary of State under section 95 or 98, the court may order A to pay to the Secretary of State an amount representing the payment to B which would not have been made but for A’s misrepresentation or failure. (4) “Court” means a county court in Northern Ireland or the county court in England and Wales or, in Scotland, the sheriff.

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.
