Northern Ireland Act 1998
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
57 Consolidated Fund of Northern Ireland.
(1) The Consolidated Fund of Northern Ireland shall continue to exist. (2) Sums forming part of the Fund— (a) shall be appropriated to the public service of Northern Ireland by Act of the Assembly; and (b) shall not be applied for any purpose for which they are not appropriated. (3) Subsection (2) is subject to section 59 and to any provision which charges sums on the Fund and is made— (a) by or under an Act of Parliament; or (b) by an Act of the Assembly or other Northern Ireland legislation.

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.
