Extradition Act 2003
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
72 Person arrested under section 71
(1) This section applies if a person is arrested under a warrant issued under section 71. (2) A copy of the warrant must be given to the person as soon as practicable after his arrest. (3) The person must be brought as soon as practicable before the appropriate judge. (4) But subsection (3) does not apply if— (a) the person is granted bail by a constable following his arrest, or (b) the Secretary of State decides under section 126 that the request for the person’s extradition is not to be proceeded with. (5) If subsection (2) is not complied with and the person applies to the judge to be discharged, the judge may order his discharge. (6) If subsection (3) is not complied with and the person applies to the judge to be discharged, the judge must order his discharge. (7) When the person first appears or is brought before the appropriate judge, the judge must— (a) inform him of the contents of the request for his extradition; (b) give him the required information about consent; (c) remand him in custody or on bail. (8) The required information about consent is— (a) that the person may consent to his extradition to the category 2 territory to which his extradition is requested; (b) an explanation of the effect of consent and the procedure that will apply if he gives consent; (c) that consent must be given in writing and is irrevocable. (9) If the person is remanded in custody, the appropriate judge may later grant bail. (10) Subsection (4)(a) applies to Scotland with the omission of the words “by a constable”.

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.
