Housing Act 1988
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
14ZA Effect of determination: rent payable
(1) This section applies where the appropriate tribunal makes a determination on an application under section 14(A1) in relation to a tenancy. (2) The rent payable under the tenancy following the determination is— (a) the new rent amount, and (b) the appropriate amount (if any) in respect of rates. (3) The rent payable under the tenancy following the determination takes effect from the date that the appropriate tribunal directs. (4) The new rent amount is— (a) the open-market rent, if lower than the tenancy rent, and (b) otherwise, the tenancy rent. (5) The date must not be earlier than the date of the application. (6) In this section— “the appropriate amount in respect of rates” means the amount of rent attributable to any rates borne as mentioned in section 14(5); “the open-market rent” means the amount of rent determined by the appropriate tribunal on the application, in accordance with section 14(1); “the tenancy rent” means the rent payable under the tenancy immediately before the determination is made, excluding the appropriate amount in respect of rates (if any).

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.
