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
As published
73 Certificate of validity of contested registration.
(1) If in proceedings before the court the validity of the registration of a trade mark is contested and it is found by the court that the trade mark is validly registered, the court may give a certificate to that effect.
(2) If the court gives such a certificate and in subsequent proceedings—
(a) the validity of the registration is again questioned, and
(b) the proprietor obtains a final order or judgment in his favour,
he is entitled to his costs as between solicitor and client unless the court directs otherwise.
This subsection does not extend to the costs of an appeal in any such proceedings.

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.
