Public Utilities Street Works Act 1950 (repealed 1.1.1993)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.

37 References to property held or used for transport undertakings, and to powers for railway or tramway purposes.
(1) References in this Act to a streetroad which crosses or is crossed by property held or used for the purposes of a transport undertaking extend to cases in which the streetroad and the property in question are at different levels as well as to cases in which they are on the same level, but the transport authority shall not be treated as an authority concerned as regards undertakers’ works in such a streetroad, or be entitled to elect themselves to execute any of them, where the property in question consists only of— (a) subsoil of the streetroad, or land under it, which is held by the transport authority but is not used, and has not been adapted for use, for the purposes of the undertaking, or (b) property underground at such a depth that there is no reasonable possibility of the works’ affecting it; and the Fourth Schedule to this Act (which requires notice and settling of specifications in connection with transport works which affect apparatus of undertakers) shall not apply where the property in which such works are to be executed is underground at such a depth that there is no reasonable possibility of their affecting the apparatus in question. (2) The provisions of this Act relating to a streetroad which crosses or is crossed by property held or used for the purposes of a transport undertaking shall apply to a streetroad which is or forms part of a towing-path or other way running along a canal or inland navigation, being a path or way which, or the subsoil of which, is held or used for the purposes of the canal or inland navigation undertaking. (3) References in this Act to a power conferred for purposes of a railway undertaking or a tramway undertaking include references to a power conferred primarily for those purposes but for other purposes also, and references therein to works, or to apparatus held or used, for purposes of a railway undertaking or a tramway undertaking, or for purposes of a railway undertaking, shall be construed in like manner.

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.
