Finance Act 1999
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
113 Bearer instruments.
(1) The provisions of Schedule 15 to this Act have effect in place of the heading “Bearer Instruments” in Schedule 1 to the Stamp Act 1891, and certain related enactments, and incorporate amendments in relation to bearer instruments corresponding to those made by— section 109 (interest and penalties on late stamping), section 112 (general amendment of charging provisions), and Part I of Schedule 17 to this Act (amendments of penalties other than on late stamping). (2) The percentage rates specified in Schedule 15 correspond to the rates of duty generally in force at the passing of this Act. In the case of an instrument in relation to which there was then in force transitional provision in connection with an earlier change in the rate of duty having the effect that a different rate applied, the new provisions have effect as if a reference to a percentage corresponding to that different rate were substituted. (3) The consequential amendments specified in Schedule 16 to this Act have effect. (4) This section applies in relation to bearer instruments issued on or after 1st October 1999.

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.
