Police (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
10 Funding of Police Authority – ancillary provisions.
(1) The Police Authority shall— (a) prepare and submit to the Secretary of State, at such times and in such form as the Secretary of State may direct, estimates of the receipts and payments of the Authority— (i) for police purposes; and (ii) for general administrative purposes of the Authority, during such period as may be specified in the direction; and (b) submit to the Secretary of State such other information relating to those estimates as he may require. (2) A draft of the estimates of receipts and payments for police purposes shall be submitted by the Chief Constable to the Police Authority. (3) The estimates of receipts and payments for police purposes submitted by the Police Authority under subsection (1) shall be either— (a) in the form of the draft submitted under subsection (2); or (b) in that form with such amendments as the Authority may, after consultation with the Chief Constable, determine. (4) The Police Authority shall comply with such directions as the Secretary of State may give as to the application of moneys received by the Authority otherwise than by way of grant under section 9(1); and to the extent that any statutory provision or any such direction does not require moneys so received to be applied in a particular manner or for a particular purpose, the Authority shall apply those moneys for police purposes. (5) The Police Authority shall in each financial year put at the disposal of the Chief Constable— (a) an amount equal to the amount of the grant for police purposes received in that year by the Authority under section 9(1); and (b) any amount received by the Authority in that year which is required to be applied for police purposes— (i) by subsection (4) or directions under that subsection; or (ii) by any other statutory provision.

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.
