Commonwealth Development Corporation Act 1978
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
8 Special provisions as to dependent territories.
(1) In determining its policy as to the activities to be carried on by it in any dependent territory and the manner in which they are to be carried on, and as to assisting or participating in the carrying on by others of activities in any dependent territory, the Corporation shall have particular regard to the interests of the inhabitants of the dependent territory. (2) The Corporation shall appoint committees charged with the duty of studying and keeping the Corporation informed as to the circumstances and requirements of the inhabitants referred to in subsection (1) above in cases in which the appointment of such a committee appears to the Corporation to be needed for the proper discharge of the duty imposed on it by that subsection. (3) A committee appointed for the purposes of subsection (2) above shall, unless it appears to the Corporation to be impracticable, include persons having knowledge of the circumstances and requirements of the inhabitants of the dependent territory in question obtained by their being or having been themselves inhabitants of the territory or residents in it. (4) The Corporation shall not establish, or assist or participate in the establishment of, a new undertaking in any dependent territory until such measures for consultation with the government of the territory as appear to the Minister to be appropriate have been taken. (5) In the performance of its duty under section 7(1) above, and in dealing with matters affecting terms or conditions of employment, the Corporation shall seek consultation, where the matter in question arises in connection with the carrying on of activities in a dependent territory, with the government of the territory.

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.
