Equality Act 2006
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
9 Human rights
(1) The Commission shall, by exercising the powers conferred by this Part— (a) promote understanding of the importance of human rights, (b) encourage good practice in relation to human rights, (c) promote awareness, understanding and protection of human rights, and (d) encourage public authorities to comply with section 6 of the Human Rights Act 1998 (c. 42) (compliance with Convention rights). (2) In this Part “human rights” means— (a) the Convention rights within the meaning given by section 1 of the Human Rights Act 1998, and (b) other human rights. (3) In determining what action to take in pursuance of this section the Commission shall have particular regard to the importance of exercising the powers conferred by this Part in relation to the Convention rights. (4) In fulfilling a duty under section 8 ... the Commission shall take account of any relevant human rights. (5) A reference in this Part (including this section) to human rights does not exclude any matter by reason only of its being a matter to which section 8 ... relates.

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.
