Budget Responsibility and National Audit Act 2011
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
1 Charter for Budget Responsibility
(1) The Treasury must prepare a document, to be known as the Charter for Budget Responsibility, relating to the formulation and implementation of fiscal policy and policy for the management of the National Debt. (2) The Charter must in particular set out— (a) the Treasury's objectives in relation to fiscal policy and policy for the management of the National Debt, (b) the means by which the Treasury's objectives in relation to fiscal policy will be attained (“the fiscal mandate”), and (c) matters to be included in a Financial Statement and Budget Report prepared under section 2. (3) The Charter may contain such other material as the Treasury considers appropriate (and see also section 6). (4) The Treasury must lay the Charter before Parliament. (5) The Treasury may from time to time modify the Charter. (6) When the Charter is modified the Treasury must lay the modified Charter before Parliament. (7) The Charter (or the modified Charter) does not come into force until it has been approved by a resolution of the House of Commons. (8) The Treasury must publish the Charter and any modified Charter once approved by the House of Commons.

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.
