(2) The Secretary of State may— (a) provide for an obligation under section 36 to apply in respect of the steel undertaking after the onward transfer; (b) extend section 37 so as to permit action to be taken under section 37(1) to enable the steel undertaking to operate effectively after the onward transfer.

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.
