Liability for War Damage (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1939
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
2 Liability in respect of goods on approval or sale or return.
Where, whether before or after the commencement of this Act— (a) any goods have been delivered to any person (hereafter in this section referred to as “the buyer”) on approval or on sale or return or other similar terms; and (b) an obligation is imposed on the buyer by the terms of any contract, or by any custom, to pay the price of the goods in the event of their being lost or damaged before the property therein would otherwise have passed to the buyer; the obligation shall be deemed not to extend to loss or damage by war: Provided that, except in a case where the price of the goods does not exceed twenty-five pounds, this section shall not apply if the loss or damage in the event of which the buyer is liable to pay the price of the goods is expressly related to war by the terms of a contract.

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.
