Trusts of Land and Appointment of Trustees Act 1996
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
16 Protection of purchasers.
(1) A purchaser of land which is or has been subject to a trust need not be concerned to see that any requirement imposed on the trustees by section 6(5), 7(3) or 11(1) has been complied with. (2) Where— (a) trustees of land who convey land which (immediately before it is conveyed) is subject to the trust contravene section 6(6) or (8), but (b) the purchaser of the land from the trustees has no actual notice of the contravention, the contravention does not invalidate the conveyance. (3) Where the powers of trustees of land are limited by virtue of section 8— (a) the trustees shall take all reasonable steps to bring the limitation to the notice of any purchaser of the land from them, but (b) the limitation does not invalidate any conveyance by the trustees to a purchaser who has no actual notice of the limitation. (4) Where trustees of land convey land which (immediately before it is conveyed) is subject to the trust to persons believed by them to be beneficiaries absolutely entitled to the land under the trust and of full age and capacity— (a) the trustees shall execute a deed declaring that they are discharged from the trust in relation to that land, and (b) if they fail to do so, the court may make an order requiring them to do so. (5) A purchaser of land to which a deed under subsection (4) relates is entitled to assume that, as from the date of the deed, the land is not subject to the trust unless he has actual notice that the trustees were mistaken in their belief that the land was conveyed to beneficiaries absolutely entitled to the land under the trust and of full age and capacity. (6) Subsections (2) and (3) do not apply to land held on charitable, ecclesiastical or public trusts. (7) This section does not apply to registered land.

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.
