Fraud Act 2006
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
13 Evidence
(1) A person is not to be excused from— (a) answering any question put to him in proceedings relating to property, or (b) complying with any order made in proceedings relating to property, on the ground that doing so may incriminate him or his spouse or civil partner of an offence under this Act or a related offence. (2) But, in proceedings for an offence under this Act or a related offence, a statement or admission made by the person in— (a) answering such a question, or (b) complying with such an order, is not admissible in evidence against him or (unless they married or became civil partners after the making of the statement or admission) his spouse or civil partner. (3) “Proceedings relating to property” means any proceedings for— (a) the recovery or administration of any property, (b) the execution of a trust, or (c) an account of any property or dealings with property, and “property” means money or other property whether real or personal (including things in action and other intangible property). (4) “Related offence” means— (a) conspiracy to defraud; (b) any other offence involving any form of fraudulent conduct or purpose.

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.
