Fair Employment (Northern Ireland) Act 1976 (repealed 1.3.1999)
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
21 Discrimination by vocational organisations.
It shall be unlawful for a vocational organisation to discriminate against a person who is employed or is seeking employment in Northern Ireland, or who is engaged or is seeking to become engaged in an occupation in Northern Ireland,— (a) where that person is not a member of the organisation— (i) by refusing or deliberately omitting to accept his application for membership, or (ii) in the terms on which it is prepared to admit him to membership; or (b) where that person is a member of the organisation— (i) in the way it affords him access to benefits or by refusing or deliberately omitting to afford him access to them, or (ii) by depriving him of membership, or varying the terms on which he is a member, or (iii) by subjecting him to any other detriment.

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.
