Northern Ireland (Elections) Act 1998 (repealed 2.12.1999)
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
8 Commencement.
(1) Sections 2(5) and (6), 3 and 6 and this section shall come into force on the day on which this Act is passed. (2) The remaining provisions of this Act shall come into force on such day as the Secretary of State may appoint by order. (3) The Secretary of State shall appoint a day only if— (a) a referendum is held about the agreement reached at the multi-party talks on Northern Ireland set out in Command Paper 3883, and (b) a majority of those voting support the agreement.

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.
