New Towns Act 1981
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
18 Disposal to pre-acquisition occupiers.
(1) In relation to land acquired by a development corporation under this Act, if persons who were living or carrying on business or other activities on land so acquired— (a) desire to obtain accommodation on land belonging to the corporation, and (b) are willing to comply with any requirements of the corporation as to its development and use, the corporation’s powers with respect to the disposal of that land shall be exercised as provided in subsection (2) below. (2) The corporation’s powers referred to in subsection (1) above shall be so exercised as to secure, so far as practicable, that those persons have an opportunity to obtain such accommodation suitable to their reasonable requirements, on terms settled with due regard to the price at which such land has been acquired from them. (3) In the case of a person who was carrying on a business of selling alcohol (within the meaning of section 191 of the Licensing Act 2003) by retail on land acquired by a development corporation under this Act, the corporation is not under any duty to afford him an opportunity of obtaining alternative accommodation for such a business.

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.
