Transport and Works Act 1992
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 Orders as to inland waterways etc.
(1) The Secretary of State may make an order relating to, or to matters ancillary to— (a) the construction or operation of an inland waterway in England and Wales; (b) the carrying out of works which— (i) interfere with rights of navigation in waters within or adjacent to England and Wales, up to the seaward limits of the territorial sea, and (ii) are of a description prescribed by order made under section 4 below. (1A) Subsection (1) is subject to— (a) section 33(2) of the Planning Act 2008 (exclusion of powers to authorise development); (b) section 120(9) of that Act (exclusion of power to include ancillary provision in orders); (c) section 20(2) of the Infrastructure (Wales) Act 2024 (exclusion of powers to authorise development for which infrastructure consent is required); (d) section 63(8) of that Act (exclusion of powers to include ancillary provision in orders). (2) The Secretary of State shall not make an order under this section if in his opinion the primary object of the order could be achieved by means of an order under the Harbours Act 1964. (3) The power to make orders under this section shall be exercisable by statutory instrument.

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.
