New Forest Act 1949
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.

12 Enclosures for growth of timber.
(1) The verderers may from time to time on a presentment made to them by the Forestry Commissioners, after the publication by the Commissioners of such notice of the proposed presentment as appears to them requisite for informing persons concerned, authorise the enclosure by the Commissioners, for the purpose of growing timber, of such land in the Forest as the verderers may specify in addition to the land which may be enclosed apart from this section: Provided that the power of the verderers under this section shall not be exercised so as to authorise in all the enclosure of more than 2,203 hectares of land. (2) Section seven of the Act of 1877 (which provides for the appropriation of certain land and suspends rights of common and other rights subject to preservation of public rights of way) shall apply to land for the time being enclosed by virtue of this section as it applies to the land mentioned in the said section seven. (3) The Forestry Commissioners shall make to the verderers in respect of land for the time being enclosed by virtue of this section payments of such amounts as may be agreed between the verderers and the Commissioners. (4) The verderer appointed by the Forestry Commissioners shall not vote on any question arising on a presentment under this section.

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.
