The Building Safety Levy (England) Regulations 2025
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.

4 Designation of collecting authorities
(1) Subject to paragraph (2), the local authority for the area in which a building or proposed building to which a building control application relates is or is to be situated is designated as the person to whom the building safety levy in relation to such an application is to be paid. (2) If a building or proposed building to which a building control application relates is or is to be situated in the areas of more than one local authority, the local authority in whose area the greater part of the building is or is to be situated is designated, in respect of the whole of the building, as the person to whom the building safety levy in relation to such a building is to be paid. (3) If— (a) the application referred to in paragraph (1) is a higher-risk building application, and (b) the building work to which the application relates is to be carried out in the areas of more than one local authority, then any reference in these Regulations (except in paragraphs (1) and (2)) to that application as it applies in relation to a collecting authority is to be treated as a reference to the part of the application in relation to which the authority is designated under this regulation. (4) For the purposes of these Regulations, a “collecting authority” is a local authority designated under paragraph (1) or (2).

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.
