Social Security (Recovery of Benefits) Act 1997
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
22 Liability of insurers.
(1) If a compensation payment is made in a case where— (a) a person is liable to any extent in respect of the accident, injury or disease, and (b) the liability is covered to any extent by a policy of insurance, the policy is also to be treated as covering any liability of that person under section 6. (2) Liability imposed on the insurer by subsection (1) cannot be excluded or restricted. (3) For that purpose excluding or restricting liability includes— (a) making the liability or its enforcement subject to restrictive or onerous conditions, (b) excluding or restricting any right or remedy in respect of the liability, or subjecting a person to any prejudice in consequence of his pursuing any such right or remedy, or (c) excluding or restricting rules of evidence or procedure. (4) Regulations may in prescribed cases limit the amount of the liability imposed on the insurer by subsection (1). (5) This section applies to policies of insurance issued before (as well as those issued after) its coming into force. (6) References in this section to policies of insurance and their issue include references to contracts of insurance and their making.

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.
