Welfare Reform Act 2007
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
15 Directions about work-related activity
(1) In prescribed circumstances, the Secretary of State may by direction given to a person subject to a requirement imposed under section 13(1) provide that the activity specified in the direction is— (a) to be the only activity which, in the person’s case, is to be regarded as being work-related activity; or (b) to be regarded, in the person’s case, as not being work-related activity. (1A) But a direction under subsection (1) may not specify medical or surgical treatment as the only activity which, in any person’s case, is to be regarded as being work-related activity. (2) A direction under subsection (1) given to any person— (a) must be reasonable, having regard to the person’s circumstances; (b) must be given to the person by being included in an action plan provided to the person under section 14; and (c) may be varied or revoked by a subsequent direction under subsection (1). (3) Where a direction under subsection (1) varies or revokes a previous direction, it may provide for the variation or revocation to have effect from a time before the giving of the direction.

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.
