Welsh Courts Act 1942 (repealed 21.12.1993)
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
3 Provisions as to interpretation and records.
(1) The Lord Chancellor may, with the consent of the Treasury, make rules as to the provision and employment of interpreters of the Welsh and English languages for the purposes of proceedings before courts in Wales, and for the payment of remuneration in respect of their services, in accordance with such scales as may be prescribed by the rules, out of the same fund as the expenses of the court are payable. (2) The records of all proceedings in courts in Wales shall continue to be kept in the English language and, subject to the provisions of the last foregoing section and of any rules made under this section, the judge or chairman in any such proceedings shall require any part of the proceedings spoken or written in the Welsh language to be translated into the English language unless, in his opinion, the translation thereof is not necessary for securing the due and public administration of justice.

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.
