Weeds Act 1959
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
1A Code of practice: ragwort
(1) The Minister may make a code of practice for the purpose of providing guidance on how to prevent the spread of ragwort (senecio jacobaea L.). (2) Before making the code the Minister must consult such persons as he considers appropriate. (3) The Minister must lay a copy of the code before Parliament. (4) The Minister may revise the code; and subsections (2) and (3) apply to the revised code. (5) The code is to be admissible in evidence. (6) If the code appears to a court to be relevant to any question arising in proceedings it is to be taken into account in determining that question.

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.
