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
28 Scottish inquiries
(1) This section applies to an inquiry for which the Scottish Ministers are responsible. (2) The terms of reference of the inquiry must not require it to determine any fact or to make any recommendation that is not wholly or primarily concerned with a Scottish matter. (3) The powers conferred by section 21 are exercisable only— (a) in respect of evidence, documents or other things that are wholly or primarily concerned with a Scottish matter, or (b) for the purpose of inquiring into something that is wholly or primarily a Scottish matter. (4) Those powers are not exercisable so as to require any evidence, document or other thing to be given, produced or provided by or on behalf of Her Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom, the Welsh Ministers or a Northern Ireland Minister. (5) In this section “Scottish matter” means a matter that relates to Scotland and is not a reserved matter (within the meaning of the Scotland Act 1998).

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.
