Food Act 1984
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.

54 Time for payment of charges.
(1) Charges payable in respect of the market shall be paid from time to time on demand to an authorised market officer.

(3) Charges payable in respect of animals brought to the market for sale shall be payable, and may be demanded by an authorised market officer— (a) as soon as the animals in respect of which they are payable are brought into the market place, and (b) before they are put into any pen, or tied up in the market place, but further charges shall be payable and may be demanded in respect of any of the animals which are not removed within one hour after the close of the market.

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.
