Public Utilities Street Works Act 1950 (repealed 1.1.1993)
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
32 Provisions against duplication of compensation, etc.
(1) Where a right to a payment inuring for the benefit of any authority, body or person is conferred in respect of any matter by any provision of this Act for payment of compensation or for indemnity, and apart from this subsection there would fall to be made under any enactment or agreement passed or made before the passing of this Act a payment inuring for the benefit of the same authority, body or person in respect of the same matter, the right to the former payment in so far as it inures for the benefit of that authority, body or person shall be treated as being in or towards satisfaction of the right to the latter in so far as it inures for their or his benefit. (2) Where a right to a payment in respect of any matter inuring for the benefit of the same authority, body or person is conferred by each of two or more provisions of this Act for payment of compensation or for indemnity, they or he shall be entitled to claim under such one only of those provisions as they or he may elect to enforce.

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.
