Police Reform Act 2002
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
29H Director General's powers and duties where whistle-blower is deceased
(1) The power of the Director General to carry out an investigation under section 29D(1) applies where the whistle-blower dies before the Director General becomes aware of the concern (or before the Director General decides to investigate). (2) Any investigation begun by the Director General under section 29D(1) before the death of the whistle-blower may be continued after the death. (3) Where a whistle-blower dies— (a) any requirement under this Part to obtain the consent of the whistle-blower may be satisfied by obtaining the consent of that person's approved representative; (b) any requirement under this Part to give any document or other information to the whistle-blower may be satisfied by giving the document or other information to the person's approved representative; (c) any requirement under this Part not to disclose the identity of the whistle-blower does not apply or (where the Director General became aware of the concern before the death) ceases to apply. (4) For the purpose of this section, “approved representative” means a person who has been approved by the Director General for the purposes of this Part. (5) The Director General may only approve a person who is— (a) the widow or widower (or surviving civil partner) of the deceased whistle-blower, (b) a personal representative (within the meaning of section 55(1)(xi) of the Administration of Estates Act 1925) of the deceased whistle-blower, or (c) any other person appearing to the Director General to have, by reason of a family or similar relationship with the deceased whistle-blower, a relevant interest in the outcome of the concern.

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.
