Inquiries Act 2005
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
23 Risk of damage to the economy
(1) This section applies where it is submitted to an inquiry panel, on behalf of the Crown, the Financial Conduct Authority, the Prudential Regulation Authority or the Bank of England, that there is information held by any person which, in order to avoid a risk of damage to the economy, ought not to be revealed. (2) The panel must not permit or require the information to be revealed, or cause it to be revealed, unless satisfied that the public interest in the information being revealed outweighs the public interest in avoiding a risk of damage to the economy. (3) In making a decision under this section the panel must take account of any restriction notice given under section 19 or any restriction order that the chairman has made or proposes to make under that section. (4) In this section— “damage to the economy” means damage to the economic interests of the United Kingdom or of any part of the United Kingdom; “revealed” means revealed to anyone who is not a member of the inquiry panel. (5) This section does not prevent the inquiry panel from communicating any information in confidence to the Minister. (6) This section does not affect the rules of law referred to in section 22(2).

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.
