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
98 Preparation and publication of scheme: new EPB
(1) This section applies where two or more of the authorities that have undertaken a review under section 97 conclude that the establishment of an EPB for an area would be likely to improve— (a) the exercise of statutory functions relating to economic development and regeneration in the area, and (b) economic conditions in the area. (2) The authorities may prepare and publish a scheme for the establishment of an EPB for the area (“the scheme area”). (3) Subject as follows, the scheme area— (a) must consist of or include the whole or any part of the review area, (b) may include one or more other local government areas, and (c) must meet condition A in section 88. (4) The scheme area may not include a local government area unless each appropriate authority for that area— (a) participates in the preparation of the scheme, or (b) consents to its inclusion in the scheme area. (5) For this purpose— (a) a county council is an appropriate authority for a local government area that is or forms part of the area of that county council; (b) a district council is an appropriate authority for a local government area that is the area of that district council.

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.
