Land Drainage Act 1991
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
50 Amendments as respects drainage rates.
(1) The drainage board for an internal drainage district may at any time make such amendments in the current or last preceding drainage rate as appear to them necessary in order to make the rate conform with this Part and, in particular, may— (a) correct any clerical or arithmetical error; (b) correct any erroneous insertions or omissions or any misdescriptions; (c) make such additions or corrections as appear to the board to be necessary by reason of— (i) any change in the occupation of any hereditament; or (ii) any property previously rated as a single hereditament becoming liable to be rated in parts. (2) The drainage board for an internal drainage district shall serve notice of any amendment made by them in pursuance of this section on the occupier of every hereditament affected by it. (3) Where an amendment is made in pursuance of this section— (a) any amount overpaid shall be repaid or allowed; and (b) any amount underpaid may be recovered as if it were arrears of the rate.

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.
