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
9 Limited capability for work-related activity
(1) For the purposes of this Part, whether a person's capability for work-related activity is limited by his physical or mental condition and, if it is, whether the limitation is such that it is not reasonable to require him to undertake such activity shall be determined in accordance with regulations. (2) Regulations under subsection (1) shall— (a) provide for determination on the basis of an assessment of the person concerned; (b) define the assessment by reference to such matters as the regulations may provide; (c) make provision as to the manner of carrying out the assessment. (3) Regulations under subsection (1) may, in particular, make provision— (a) as to the information or evidence required for the purpose of determining the matters mentioned in that subsection; (b) as to the manner in which that information or evidence is to be provided; (c) for a person in relation to whom it falls to be determined whether he has limited capability for work-related activity to be called to attend for such medical examination as the regulations may require. (4) Regulations under subsection (1) may include provision— (a) for a person to be treated as not having limited capability for work-related activity if he fails without good cause— (i) to provide information or evidence which he is required under such regulations to provide, (ii) to provide information or evidence in the manner in which he is required under such regulations to provide it, or (iii) to attend for, or submit himself to, a medical examination for which he is called under such regulations to attend; (b) as to matters which are, or are not, to be taken into account in determining for the purposes of any provision made by virtue of paragraph (a) whether a person has good cause for any act or omission; (c) as to circumstances in which a person is, or is not, to be regarded for the purposes of any such provision as having good cause for any act or omission.

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.
