Export Control Act 2002
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

(5) For the purposes of subsection (1) a person participates in the provision of technical assistance outside the United Kingdom if— (a) he provides technical assistance outside the United Kingdom or agrees to do so; or (b) he makes arrangements under which another person provides technical assistance outside the United Kingdom or agrees to do so. (6) The Secretary of State may by order make provision in connection with any controls that may be imposed by a directly applicable EU provision on participation in the provision of technical assistance.

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.
