Business Rate Supplements Act 2009
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 BRS relief
(1) A levying authority that imposes a BRS may apply such reliefs in relation to the BRS as it thinks appropriate. (2) If a levying authority applies a relief in relation to a BRS, the chargeable amount for a chargeable day in relation to a hereditament is determined in accordance with the rules set by the authority for the application of the relief. (3) A levying authority may not apply a relief in relation to a BRS unless the rules for the application of the relief— (a) are set out in the final prospectus for the BRS or have effect by virtue of section 10, (b) operate by reference to the rateable value of a hereditament in respect of which the liability arises, (c) apply consistently to hereditaments in the levying authority's area regardless of the purpose for which they may be used or the basis on which they are owned or occupied, and (d) apply uniformly throughout the levying authority's area. (4) Regulations may amend subsection (3) so as to add, vary or omit a condition to be met in relation to the rules for the application of a relief under this section.

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.
