Military Lands Act 1892
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.

In relation to a footpath crossing or near to any land leased under this Act, the Highways Act 1980 shall have effect as if in section 116 thereof (which provides for the stopping up and diversion of highways) there were added to the grounds for stopping up or diverting a highway specified in subsection (1) the ground that the highway crosses or runs inconveniently or dangerously near to any such land: Provided that— (a) a magistrates’ court shall not make an order under the said section 116 authorising the stopping up or diversion of the footpath unless it is satisfied that a new footpath convenient to the public will be substituted therefor, or that the footpath as diverted will be convenient to the public, as the case may be, and (b) if the order is made, an appeal shall not lie therefrom . . . under section 317 of the said Act of 1980 on the ground that the new footpath, or the footpath as diverted, as the case may be, is not convenient to the public. In this section ’footpath’ has the same meaning as in the said Act of 1959.

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.
