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.

216 Disqualifying events

(1) This section applies if the qualifying investment is a qualifying interest in land. (2) If a disqualifying event occurs at any time in the provisional period, the following are treated as never having been entitled to relief as a result of this Chapter in respect of the disposal of the qualifying interest in land— (a) in a case where sections 214 and 215 do not apply, the company which made the disposal, and (b) in a case where those sections apply, each qualifying company which is an owner. (3) All such assessments and adjustments of assessments are to be made as are necessary to give effect to subsection (2). (4) A disqualifying event occurs if a person mentioned in subsection (5) becomes (otherwise than for full consideration in money or money's worth)— (a) entitled to an interest or right in relation to all or part of the land to which the disposal relates, or (b) party to an arrangement under which he enjoys some right in relation to all or part of that land. (5) The persons are— (a) in a case where sections 214 and 215 do not apply, the company which made the disposal or a person connected with that company, and (b) in a case where those sections apply, a person who is an owner or a person connected with such a person. (6) A disqualifying event does not occur if a person becomes entitled to an interest or right as mentioned in subsection (4)(a) as a result of a disposition of property on death (whether the disposition is effected by will, under the law relating to intestacy or otherwise). (7) “The provisional period” is the period beginning with the date of the disposal of the qualifying interest in land and ending with the sixth anniversary of the end of the accounting period in which the disposal was made.

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.

Think it through

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.
