Digital Economy Act 2017
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
59 Information disclosed by the Revenue and Customs
(1) Personal information disclosed by the Revenue and Customs under section 56 and received by a person may not be disclosed by that person. (2) Subsection (1) does not apply to a disclosure which is made with the consent of the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (which may be general or specific). (3) A person who contravenes subsection (1) is guilty of an offence. (4) It is a defence for a person charged with an offence under subsection (3) to prove that the person reasonably believed— (a) that the disclosure was lawful, or (b) that the information had already and lawfully been made available to the public. (5) Subsections (4) to (7) of section 19 of the Commissioners for Revenue and Customs Act 2005 apply to an offence under subsection (3) as they apply to an offence under that 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.
