Public Health Act 1961
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
82 Power to amend local Acts.
(1) The Minister may, subject to the provisions of this section, by order repeal or amend any provision— (a) in any local Act passed before this Act, or in any Act passed before this Act and confirming a provisional order, or (b) in any order or other instrument made under an Act of Parliament before the passing of this Act, where it appears to him that that provision is inconsistent with, or has become unnecessary in consequence of, any provision of this Act, other than the provisions of Part V. (2) Subject to subsection (3) of this section, the Minister shall not make an order under this section repealing or amending any provision in any local Act the Bill for which was promoted— (a) by a county council or local authority, or (b) by any authority, board, commissioners, trustees or other body whose functions under the local Act have become exercisable by a county council or local authority, except on the application of that county council or local authority. (3) Subsection (2) of this section shall not apply in relation to any order so far as the provisions of the local Act which it repeals or amends are repealed or amended as being inconsistent with, or as having become unnecessary in consequence of, the provisions of this Act relating to building regulations. (4) Before making an order under this section the Minister shall consult with any county council or local authority which appear to him to be concerned, not being an authority on whose application the order is made. (5) An order made under this section— (a) may contain such transitional, supplemental or incidental provisions as appear to the Minister to be expedient, and (b) shall be made by statutory instrument which shall be subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. (6) The provisions of this section shall be without prejudice to the powers conferred by section three hundred and thirteen of the Public Health Act 1936 (under which amendments may be made in certain local Acts), as applied to any of the provisions of this Act.

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.
