Human Rights Act 1998
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
16 Period for which designated derogations have effect.
(1) If it has not already been withdrawn by the United Kingdom, a designated derogation ceases to have effect for the purposes of this Act— . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ., at the end of the period of five years beginning with the date on which the order designating it was made. (2) At any time before the period— (a) fixed by subsection (1) . . ., or (b) extended by an order under this subsection, comes to an end, the Secretary of State may by order extend it by a further period of five years. (3) An order under section 14(1) . . . ceases to have effect at the end of the period for consideration, unless a resolution has been passed by each House approving the order. (4) Subsection (3) does not affect— (a) anything done in reliance on the order; or (b) the power to make a fresh order under section 14(1) . . .. (5) In subsection (3) “period for consideration” means the period of forty days beginning with the day on which the order was made. (6) In calculating the period for consideration, no account is to be taken of any time during which— (a) Parliament is dissolved or prorogued; or (b) both Houses are adjourned for more than four days. (7) If a designated derogation is withdrawn by the United Kingdom, the Secretary of State must by order make such amendments to this Act as he considers are required to reflect that withdrawal.

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.
