Protection of Freedoms Act 2012
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
35 Reports by Commissioner
(1) As soon as reasonably practicable after the end of each reporting period— (a) the Commissioner must— (i) prepare a report about the exercise by the Commissioner during that period of the functions of the Commissioner, and (ii) give a copy of the report to the Secretary of State, (b) the Secretary of State must lay a copy of the report before Parliament, and (c) the Commissioner must publish the report.

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.
