Children and Young Persons Act 2008
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
19 Support for accommodated children
After paragraph 8 of Schedule 2 to the 1989 Act insert— Provision for accommodated children 8A (1) Every local authority shall make provision for such services as they consider appropriate to be available with respect to accommodated children. (2) “Accommodated children” are those children in respect of whose accommodation the local authority have been notified under section 85 or 86. (3) The services shall be provided with a view to promoting contact between each accommodated child and that child's family. (4) The services may, in particular, include— (a) advice, guidance and counselling; (b) services necessary to enable the child to visit, or to be visited by, members of the family; (c) assistance to enable the child and members of the family to have a holiday together. (5) Nothing in this paragraph affects the duty imposed by paragraph 10.

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.
