Home Energy Conservation Act 1995
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
2 Energy conservation reports.
(1) Subject to subsection (7),it shall be the duty of every energy conservation authority to prepare a report in accordance with this section. (2) The report shall set out energy conservation measures that the authority considers practicable, cost-effective and likely to result in significant improvement in the energy efficiency of residential accommodation in its area. (3) The report shall include— (a) an assessment of the cost of the energy conservation measures set out in it; (b) an assessment of the extent to which carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere would be decreased as a result of those measures; and (c) a statement of any policy of the authority for taking into account, in deciding whether to exercise any power in connection with those measures, the personal circumstances of any person. Nothing in this subsection shall be taken as requiring the authority to set out in the report energy conservation measures to be taken in relation to any particular dwelling or building. (4) The report may, if the energy conservation authority considers it desirable, include— (a) an assessment of the extent of decreases in emissions into the atmosphere of oxides of nitrogen and sulphur dioxide which would result from the implementation of the measures set out in the report; (b) an assessment of the number of jobs which would result from the implementation of those measures; (c) an assessment of the average savings in fuel bills and in kilowatt hours of fuel used that might be expected to result from the measures by different types of household in different types of accommodation; (d) such other matters as it considers appropriate. (5) An energy conservation authority may in preparing the report consult such persons as it considers appropriate. (6) When an energy conservation authority has prepared a report in accordance with this section, it shall publish it and send a copy to the Secretary of State. (7) An energy conservation authority may prepare a report on houses in multiple occupation or house-boats which is separate from the report on other residential accommodation.

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.
