Criminal Appeal (Northern Ireland) Act 1980
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
50 Interpretation.
(1) In this Act— “the Court” means the Court of Appeal; “the Master” means the Master (Queen’s Bench and Appeals); “Northern Ireland legislation” has the meaning assigned to that expression by section 24(5) of the Interpretation Act 1978; “prescribed” means prescribed by rules of court; “rules of court” means rules made or having effect as if made under section 55 of the Judicature (Northern Ireland) Act 1978. (1A) In this Act “the Mental Health Order” means the Mental Health (Northern Ireland) Order 1986 and words or expressions used in this Act and in that Order have the same meaning in this Act as in that Order. (2) Any reference in this Act to a provision contained in Northern Ireland legislation shall be construed as including a reference to a provision corresponding thereto and for the time being in force in Northern Ireland.

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.
