Local Government and Rating Act 1997
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
27 Grants for bus services.
After section 106 of the Transport Act 1985 there is inserted— Grants for bus services. 106A (1) A parish council or community council may make grants to any body towards expenditure incurred or to be incurred by that body in connection with the operation of— (a) a bus service appearing to the council to be wholly or mainly for the benefit of members of the public who are elderly or disabled; or (b) a community bus service (as defined in section 22 of this Act). (2) The power in subsection (1) above may only be exercised if— (a) the bus service benefits, or appears to the council likely to benefit, persons living in the council’s area, and (b) a permit in relation to the use of the vehicle by means of which the service is, or is to be, provided has been granted to the body concerned under section 19 or 22 of this Act. (3) Grants under this section may be made in such cases and subject to such terms and conditions as the council think fit.

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.
