Banking Act 1987 (repealed)
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.

94 False and misleading information.
(1) Any person who knowingly or recklessly provides the Authority or any other person with information which is false or misleading in a material particular shall be guilty of an offence if the information is provided— (a) in purported compliance with a requirement imposed by or under this Act; or (b) otherwise than as mentioned in paragraph (a) above but in circumstances in which the person providing the information intends, or could reasonably be expected to know, that the information would be used by the Authority for the purpose of exercising its functions under this Act. (2) Any person who knowingly or recklessly provides the Authority or any other person with information which is false or misleading in a material particular shall be guilty of an offence if the information is provided in connection with an application for authorisation under this Act. (3) An authorised institution or former authorised institution shall be guilty of an offence if it fails to provide the Authority with any information in its possession knowing or having reasonable cause to believe— (a) that the information is relevant to the exercise by the Authority of its functions under this Act in relation to the institution; and (b) that the withholding of the information is likely to result in the Authority being misled as to any matter which is relevant to and of material significance for the exercise of those functions in relation to the institution. (4) Any person who knowingly or recklessly provides any person appointed under section 41 above with information which is false or misleading in a material particular shall be guilty of an offence.

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.
