The Civil Procedure (Amendment) Rules 2025
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
4 Amendment of Part 3
In rule 3.4(2)— (a) in sub-paragraph (b), at the end, omit “or”; (b) in sub-paragraph (c), at the end, for “.” substitute “; or”; and (c) after sub-paragraph (c) insert— (d) that, in the case of a claimant’s statement of case— (i) the claim is strategic litigation against public participation, being a SLAPP claim within the meaning of section 195 of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023; and (ii) the claimant has failed to show that it is more likely than not the claim would succeed at trial. (Rules 20.2 and 20.3 provide that counterclaims and other additional claims are treated as claims and that references to a claimant include a party bringing an additional claim.) .

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.
