Justice and Security (Northern Ireland) Act 2007
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
29 Taking possession of land, &c.
If the Secretary of State considers it necessary for the preservation of the peace or the maintenance of order, he may authorise a person— (a) to take possession of land or other property; (b) to take steps to place buildings or other structures in a state of defence; (c) to detain property or cause it to be destroyed or moved; (d) to carry out works on land of which possession has been taken by virtue of this section; (e) to take any other action which interferes with a public right or with a private right of property.

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.
