Legal Deposit Libraries Act 2003
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
5 Printed publications: other libraries
(1) Each deposit library other than the British Library Board is entitled to delivery under section 1 of a copy of any work published in print which it requests. (2) A request under this section must be in writing (whether sent by electronic or other means). (3) A request— (a) may be made before publication, and (b) in particular, may relate to all future numbers or parts of an encyclopaedia, newspaper, magazine or other work. (4) No request may be made after the end of 12 months beginning with the day of publication. (5) The copy must be delivered within one month beginning with— (a) the day of publication, or (b) if later, the day on which the request is received. (6) The copy is to be of the same quality as the largest number of copies which, at the time of delivery, have been produced for publication in the United Kingdom.

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.
