The Town and Country Planning (Crown Development Applications) (Procedure and Written Representations) Order 2025
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
24 Notification of mineral applications
(1) This article applies where— (a) the Coal Authority or the Crown Estate Commissioners have given notice to the Secretary of State identifying an area of land and specifying in the notice— (i) by the Coal Authority that the land contains coal; or (ii) by the Crown Estate Commissioners that it contains silver or gold, and (b) the land falls within the area of the relevant local planning authority. (2) The Secretary of State must not determine any Crown development application for planning permission to win and work any mineral on that land, without first notifying the body or person who gave the notice that an application has been made. (3) In this article— “coal” means coal other than that— won or worked during the course of operations which are carried on exclusively for the purpose of exploring for coal; or which it is necessary to dig or carry away in the course of activities carried on for purposes which do not include the getting of coal or any product of coal; “Coal Authority” has the meaning given in section 1 of the Coal Industry Act 1994.

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.
