Children Act 2004
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
19 Lead member for children’s services
(1) A local authority in England must, in making arrangements for the discharge of— (a) the functions conferred on or exercisable by the authority specified in section 18(1)(a) and (b), and (b) such other functions conferred on or exercisable by the authority as the authority consider appropriate, designate one of their members as their “lead member for children’s services”. (2) A local authority in England must have regard to any guidance given to them by the Secretary of State for the purposes of subsection (1).

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.
