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.

(1) A connected listed building application must be accompanied by a statement (“a design and access statement”) which explains— (a) the design principles and concepts that have been applied to the works which are the subject of the application, (b) how the design principles and concepts that have been applied to the works take account of— (i) the special architectural or historic importance of the building, (ii) the particular physical features of the building that justify its designation as a listed building, and (iii) the building’s setting, and (c) subject to paragraph (3), how issues relating to access to the building have been dealt with. (2) Subject to paragraph (3), a design and access statement must also— (a) explain the approach adopted as to access to the building, including what alternative means of access have been considered, and how policies relating to access in relevant local development documents have been taken into account, (b) explain how the approach to access takes account of— (i) the special architectural or historic importance of the building, (ii) the particular physical features of the building that justify its designation as a listed building, and (iii) the building’s setting, (c) state what, if any, consultation has been undertaken on access to the building and what account has been taken of the outcome of any such consultation, and (d) explain how any specific issues which might affect access to the building have been addressed. (3) Paragraphs (1)(c) and (2) do not apply in relation to a connected listed building application for consent to carry out work affecting only the interior of the building.

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.
