Criminal Appeal Act 1968
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
19 Bail.
(1) The Court of Appeal may, subject to section 25 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994, if they think fit,— (a) grant an appellant bail pending the determination of his appeal; or (b) revoke bail granted to an appellant by the Crown Court under paragraph (f) of section 81(1) of the Senior Courts Act 1981 or paragraph (a) above; or (c) vary the conditions of bail granted to an appellant in the exercise of the power conferred by either of those paragraphs. (2) The powers conferred by subsection (1) above may be exercised— (a) on the application of an appellant; or (b) if it appears to the registrar of criminal appeals of the Court of Appeal (hereafter referred to as “the registrar”) that any of them ought to be exercised, on a reference to the court by him.

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.
