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.
Change 1
56 Prohibited sales in market hours.
(1) A person (other than a pedlar holding a certificate under the Pedlars Act 1871) who on a market day and during market hours sells or exposes for sale any articles— (a) which are specified in a byelaw made by the market authority, and (b) which are commonly sold in the market, and such sale or exposure for sale— (i) is in any place within the authority’s area, and (ii) is within such distance from the market as the authority may by byelaw declare, is liable to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale. This subsection does not apply to a sale or exposure for sale in a person’s own dwelling place or shop, or in, or at the door of, any premises to a person resident in those premises. (2) The market authority shall keep exhibited in conspicuous positions in the vicinity of the market notices stating the effect of any byelaw made under this section.

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.
