Food Safety Act 1990
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
10 Improvement notices.
(1) If an authorised officer of an enforcement authority has reasonable grounds for believing that the proprietor of a food business is failing to comply with any regulations to which this section applies, he may, by a notice served on that proprietor (in this Act referred to as an “improvement notice”)— (a) state the officer’s grounds for believing that the proprietor is failing to comply with the regulations; (b) specify the matters which constitute the proprietor’s failure so to comply; (c) specify the measures which, in the officer’s opinion, the proprietor must take in order to secure compliance; and (d) require the proprietor to take those measures, or measures which are at least equivalent to them, within such period (not being less than 14 days) as may be specified in the notice. (2) Any person who fails to comply with an improvement notice shall be guilty of an offence. (3) This section and section 11 below apply to any regulations under this Part which make provision— (a) for requiring, prohibiting or regulating the use of any process or treatment in the preparation of food; or (b) for securing the observance of hygienic conditions and practices in connection with the carrying out of commercial operations with respect to food or food sources.

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.
