Climate Change Act 2008
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
92 Meaning of “greenhouse gas”
(1) In this Act “greenhouse gas” means any of the following— (a) carbon dioxide (CO2), (b) methane (CH4), (c) nitrous oxide (N2O), (d) hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), (e) perfluorocarbons (PFCs), (f) sulphur hexafluoride (SF6), (g) nitrogen trifluoride (NF3). (2) The Secretary of State may by order amend the definition of “greenhouse gas” in subsection (1) to add to the gases listed in that definition. (3) That power may only be exercised if it appears to the Secretary of State that an agreement or arrangement at European or international level recognises that the gas to be added contributes to climate change. (4) An order under this section is subject to negative resolution procedure.

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.
