The Non-Domestic Rating (Definition of Qualifying Retail, Hospitality or Leisure Hereditament) Regulations 2025
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.

3 Qualifying purposes
(1) The qualifying purposes referred to in regulation 2(a) are— (a) use for— (i) the retail sale or hire of goods, or (ii) the provision of a service, where the sale, hire, or provision of the service is to visiting members of the public; (b) use for the sale of food or drink, where the food or drink is for consumption on or off the hereditament by visiting members of the public; (c) use as a hotel or as a boarding or guest house by members of the public, provided that no significant element of nursing care is provided as part of the services provided by the hotel, boarding house or guest house; (d) use as a caravan park, campsite, self-catering accommodation or holiday home by members of the public; (e) use for the provision of cultural, community or recreational facilities, to visiting members of the public, as further described in Schedule 2. (2) A hereditament does not cease to be used wholly or mainly for a purpose set out in paragraph (1) if the majority of sales by the business using that hereditament take place online, provided that some goods, food or drink are sold, or services or other facilities are provided, by the business to members of the public visiting the hereditament in person. (3) In determining for the purposes of this regulation whether a hereditament is used by visiting members of the public, it is irrelevant that access to the hereditament may be limited (at all times or at particular times) to members of the public who— (a) have paid to access the hereditament, (b) have tickets or passes allowing access, or (c) are members or guests of a club, association or similar body.

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.
