Companies (Audit, Investigations and Community Enterprise) Act 2004
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
24 Failure to comply with certain requirements
After section 453B of the Companies Act 1985 (c. 6) (inserted by section 23) insert— Failure to comply with certain requirements 453C (1) This section applies if a person fails to comply with a requirement imposed by an inspector, the Secretary of State or an investigator in pursuance of either of the following provisions— (a) section 447; (b) section 453A. (2) The inspector, Secretary of State or investigator (as the case may be) may certify the fact in writing to the court. (3) If, after hearing— (a) any witnesses who may be produced against or on behalf of the alleged offender; (b) any statement which may be offered in defence, the court is satisfied that the offender failed without reasonable excuse to comply with the requirement, it may deal with him as if he had been guilty of contempt of the court.

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.
