Judicature (Northern Ireland) Act 1978
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
5 Divisions of the High Court.
(1) There shall be three divisions of the High Court, namely— (a) the Chancery Division; (b) the Queen’s Bench Division; and (c) the Family Division. (2) The Department of Justice may by order from time to time create additional divisions of the High Court or provide that any division be abolished and any such order may contain such provision as may be necessary or proper for that purpose. (3) A judge of the High Court may sit in any division. (4) Without prejudice to any statutory provision relating to or affecting the distribution of business in the High Court, all jurisdiction vested in the High Court shall belong to all the divisions alike.

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.
