Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000
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.
(1) This section applies if a registered party is a party to a regulated transaction in which another participant is not an authorised participant.
(2) The transaction is void.
(3) Despite subsection (2)—
(a) any money received by the registered party by virtue of the transaction must be repaid by the treasurer of the party to the person from whom it was received, along with interest at such rate as is determined in accordance with an order made by the Secretary of State;
(b) that person is entitled to recover the money, along with such interest.
(4) If—
(a) the money is not (for whatever reason) repaid as mentioned in subsection (3)(a), or
(b) the person entitled to recover the money refuses or fails to do so,
the Commission may apply to the court to make such order as it thinks fit to restore (so far as is possible) the parties to the transaction to the position they would have been in if the transaction had not been entered into.
(5) An order under subsection (4) may in particular—
(a) where the transaction is a loan or credit facility, require that any amount owed by the registered party be repaid (and that no further sums be advanced under it);
(b) where any form of security is given for a sum owed under the transaction, require that security to be discharged.
(6) In the case of a regulated transaction where a party other than a registered party—
(a) at the time the registered party enters into the transaction, is an authorised participant, but
(b) subsequently, for whatever reason, ceases to be an authorised participant,
the transaction is void and subsections (3) to (5) apply with effect from the time when the other party ceased to be an authorised participant.
(7) This section does not apply to a regulated transaction if it was entered into before the commencement of section 61 of the Electoral Administration Act 2006.

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.
