Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001
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
8 Registration certificates
(1) The chief officer of police may, in respect of any registrable sum, issue a certificate (a “registration certificate”) stating that the sum is registrable for enforcement against the defaulter as a fine. (2) If that officer issues a registration certificate, he must cause it to be sent to the designated officer for the local justice area in which the defaulter appears to that officer to reside. (3) A registration certificate must— (a) give particulars of the offence to which the penalty notice relates, and (b) state the name and last known address of the defaulter and the amount of the registrable sum. (4) “Registrable sum” means a sum that may be registered under this section as a result of section 4(5) or (6). (5) “Defaulter” means the person against whom that sum may be registered.

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.
