Trade Union Act 1984 (repealed 16.10.1992)
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.

12 Political fund resolutions: periodical ballots.
(1) In this Part of this Act references to a “resolution” are to a resolution under section 3 of the 1913 Act (restriction on application of trade union funds for certain political purposes). (2) A resolution shall, if it has not previously beem rescinded, cease to have effect— (a) on the expiry of the period of ten years beginning with the date (whether before or after the commencement date) of the ballot on which it was passed; or (b) if a ballot is held before the expiry of that period and the result of the ballot is that a new resolution is not passed, on the expiry of the period of two weeks beginning with the date of the ballot. (3) For the purposes of this section, any resolution which— (a) is in force on the commencement date; and (b) was passed more than nine years before that date; shall be deemed to have been passed nine years before that date. (4) Where a trade union holds a ballot at a time when a resolution (the “old resolution”) is in force in respect of that union and the result of the ballot is that a new resolution is passed, the old resolution shall be treated as rescinded on the passing of the new resolution. (5) Where two or more trade unions have amalgamated under the 1964 Act and by virtue of section 5(4) of that Act the amalgamated union is treated as having passed a resolution immediately after the amalgamation, that resolution shall, for the purposes of this section, be treated as having been passed on the date of the earliest of the ballots on which the resolutions in force immediately before the amalgamation with respect to the amalgamating unions were passed.

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.
