Landlord and Tenant (Covenants) 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
13 Covenants binding two or more persons.
(1) Where in consequence of this Act two or more persons are bound by the same covenant, they are so bound both jointly and severally. (2) Subject to section 24(2), where by virtue of this Act— (a) two or more persons are bound jointly and severally by the same covenant, and (b) any of the persons so bound is released from the covenant, the release does not extend to any other of those persons. (3) For the purpose of providing for contribution between persons who, by virtue of this Act, are bound jointly and severally by a covenant, the Civil Liability (Contribution) Act 1978 shall have effect as if— (a) liability to a person under a covenant were liability in respect of damage suffered by that person; (b) references to damage accordingly included a breach of a covenant of a tenancy; and (c) section 7(2) of that Act were omitted.

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.
