Judicial Pensions Act 1981
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
2 Rate of pension.
(1) A holder of high judicial office on retirement from that office shall be entitled during his life to a pension at the annual rate provided by this section— (a) if he retires after 15 years relevant service or after he has attained the age of 70 years, or (b) if at the time of his retirement he is disabled by permanent infirmity from the performance of the duties of his office. (2) The annual rate of the pension payable under this section to a person retiring from any office after 15 or more years relevant service shall be one half of his last annual salary. (3) The annual rate of the pension payable under this section to a person retiring from any office after less than 15 years relevant service shall be— (a) if the period of relevant service does not amount to 6 years, one quarter of his last annual salary; (b) if the period amounts to 6 years or more, one quarter of that salary plus 1/40th of that salary for each completed year of service exceeding 5.

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.
