Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1971
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 Contracting States, etc.
(1) If Her Majesty by Order in Council certified to the following effect, that is to say, that for the purposes of the Rules— (a) a State specified in the Order is a contracting State, or is a contracting State in respect of any place or territory so specified; or (b) any place or territory specified in the Order forms part of a State so specified (whether a contracting State or not), the Order shall, except so far as it has been superseded by a subsequent Order, be conclusive evidence of the matters so certified. (2) An Order in Council under this Section may be varied or revoked by a subsequent Order in Council.

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.
