Vaccine Damage Payments Act 1979
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
9 Fraudulent statements etc.
(1) Any person who, for the purpose of obtaining any payment under this Act, whether for himself or some other person,— (a) knowingly makes any false statement or representation, or (b) produces or furnishes or causes or knowingly allows to be produced or furnished any document or information which he knows to be false in a material particular, shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale.

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.
