Public Utility Transfers and Water Charges Act 1988
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.

7 Interpretation.
(1) In this Act, except in so far as the context otherwise requires— “the 1973 Act” means the Water Act 1973; “effluent” means any liquid, including any particles of matter in suspension in the liquid; “information” includes accounts, estimates and returns; “local statutory provision” and “statutory water company” have the same meanings as in the 1973 Act; “meter” means any apparatus for measuring or showing the volume of water supplied to, or of effluent discharged from, any premises; “modifications” includes additions, alterations and omissions, and cognate expressions shall be construed accordingly; “water undertakers” means any water authority or statutory water company. (2) References in this Act to the fixing of charges in relation to any premises by reference to volume are references to the fixing of those charges by reference to the volume of water supplied to those premises, to the volume of effluent discharged from those premises, to both of those factors or to one or both of those factors taken together with other factors.

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.
