Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009
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
107DA Procedure for direct conferral of general functions on mayor
(1) This section applies in relation to an order which is made under sections 105A and 107D in relation to an existing mayoral combined authority and provides for a function— (a) to be a function of the combined authority, and (b) to be a function exercisable only by the mayor. (2) The Secretary of State may make the order only if a request for the making of the order has been made to the Secretary of State by the mayor. (3) Before submitting a request under this section, the mayor must consult the constituent councils. (4) A request under this section must contain— (a) a statement by the mayor that all of the constituent councils agree to the making of the order, or (b) if the mayor is unable to make that statement, the reasons why the mayor considers the order should be made even though not all of the constituent councils agree to it being made. (5) In this section “constituent council” means— (a) a county council the whole or any part of whose area is within the area of the combined authority, or (b) a district council whose area is within the area of the combined authority.

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.
