Council Directive 89/656/EEC of 30 November 1989 on the minimum health and safety requirements for the use by workers of personal protective equipment at the workplace (third individual directive within the meaning of Article 16 (1) of Directive 89/391/EEC)
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
ANNEX II
NON-EXHAUSTIVE LIST OF TYPES OF PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT WITH REGARD TO THE RISKS THEY PROVIDE PROTECTION AGAINST Equipment for HEAD PROTECTION — Helmets and/or caps/balaclavas/headgears against: — Impacts caused by falling or ejected object — Collision with an obstacle — Mechanical risks (perforation, abrasion) — Static compression (lateral crushing) — Thermal risks (fire, heat, cold, hot solids including molten metals) — Electric shock and live working — Chemical risks — Non-ionizing radiation (UV, IR, solar or welding radiation) — Hairnets against risk of entanglement Equipment for HEARING PROTECTION — Earmuffs (including e.g. earmuffs attached to a helmet, active noise reduction earmuffs, earmuffs with electrical audio input) — Earplugs (including e.g. level-dependent earplugs, earplugs adapted to the individual) Equipment for EYE AND FACE PROTECTION — Spectacles, goggles and face shields (prescription lenses where appropriate) against: — Mechanical risks — Thermal risks — Non-ionizing radiation (UV, IR, solar or welding radiation) — Ionizing radiation — Solid aerosols and liquids of chemical and biological agents Equipment for RESPIRATORY PROTECTION — Filtering devices against: — Particles — Gases — Particles and gases — Solid and/or liquid aerosols — Insulating devices, including with an air supply — Self-rescue devices — Diving equipment Equipment for HAND AND ARM PROTECTION — Gloves (including mittens and arm protection) against: — Mechanical risks — Thermal risks (heat, flame and cold) — Electric shock and live working (antistatic, conductive, insulating) — Chemical risks — Biological agents — Ionizing radiation and radioactive contamination — Non-ionizing radiation (UV, IR, solar or welding radiation) — Vibration risks — Finger stalls Equipment for FOOT AND LEG PROTECTION and anti-slip protection — Footwear (e.g. shoes, including in certain circumstances clogs, boots that may have steel toe-caps) to protect against: — Mechanical risks — Slipping risks — Thermal risks (heat, flame and cold) — Electric shock and live working (antistatic, conductive, insulating) — Chemicals risks — Vibration risks — Biological risks — Removable instep protectors against mechanical risks — Kneepads against mechanical risks — Gaiters against mechanical, thermal and chemical risks and biological agents — Accessories (e.g. spikes, crampons) SKIN PROTECTION — BARRIER CREAMS ( 2 ) — There could be barrier creams to protect against: — Non ionizing radiation (UV, IR, solar or welding radiation) — Ionizing radiation — Chemicals — Biological agents — Thermal risks (heat, flame and cold) Equipment for BODY PROTECTION/OTHER SKIN PROTECTION — Personal protective equipment for protection against falls from a height, such as retractable type fall arresters, full body harnesses, sit harnesses, belts for work positioning and restraint and work positioning lanyards, energy absorbers, guided-type fall arresters including an anchor line, rope adjustment devices, anchor devices that are not designed to be permanently fixed and that do not require fastening works before use, connectors, lanyards, rescue harness — Protective clothing, including whole body (i.e. suits, overalls) protection and partial body (i.e. gaiters, trousers, jackets, waistcoats, aprons, kneepads, hoods, balaclavas) protection against: — Mechanical risks — Thermal risks (heat, flame and cold) — Chemicals — Biological agents — Ionizing radiation and radioactive contamination — Non-ionizing radiation (UV, IR, solar or welding radiation) — Electric shock and live working (antistatic, conductive, insulating) — Entanglement and trapping — Lifejackets for prevention of drowning and buoyancy aids — PPE for signalling the user’s presence visually

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.
