Civil Aviation Act 1980
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.

4 Initial government shareholding in the successor company.
(1) As a consequence of the vesting in the successor company by virtue of section 3 of this Act of all the property, rights, liabilities and obligations of the Board, the successor company shall issue— (a) to the Secretary of State; or (b) to any person appointed as the Secretary of State’s nominee under subsection (4) below; or (c) to any person entitled to require the issue of the shares in question following their initial allotment to the Secretary of State or to any such nominee; such shares in the company as the Secretary of State may direct. (2) Shares required to be issued in pursuance of this section shall be issued or allotted at such time or times and on such terms (as to allotment) as the Secretary of State may direct. (3) Shares issued in pursuance of this section— (a) shall be of such nominal value as the Secretary of State may direct; and (b) shall be issued as fully paid and treated for the purposes of the the Companies Act 2006 as if they had been paid up by virtue of the payment to the successor company of their nominal value in cash. (4) The Secretary of State may appoint such person or persons as he thinks fit to act as his nominees for the purposes of this section; and any person holding any shares or rights acquired by virtue of this section as a nominee of the Secretary of State shall hold and deal with them (or any of them) on such terms and in such manner as the Secretary of State may direct.

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.
