Charities Act 2022
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
1 Alteration of charitable company’s purposes
(1) Section 198 of the Charities Act 2011 (alteration of objects by companies and Commission’s consent) is amended as follows. (2) In subsection (2)(a), for the words from “adding” to the end of the paragraph substitute “which alters the charitable purposes of the company,”. (3) After subsection (2) insert— (2A) In considering whether to consent to an alteration falling within subsection (2)(a) the Commission must have regard to— (a) the purposes of the company when it was established, if and so far as they are reasonably ascertainable, (b) the desirability of securing that the purposes of the company are, so far as reasonably practicable, similar to the purposes being altered, and (c) the need for the company to have purposes which are suitable and effective in the light of current social and economic circumstances.

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.
