Legal Services Act 2007
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
167 Restricted information
(1) Except as provided by section 168, restricted information must not be disclosed— (a) by a restricted person, or (b) by any person who receives the information directly or indirectly from a restricted person. (2) In this section and section 168— “restricted information” means information (other than excluded information) which is obtained by the Board in the exercise of its functions; “restricted person” means— the Board (including the Board in its capacity as an approved regulator or a licensing authority), a person who exercises functions delegated under paragraph 23 of Schedule 1 or section 73 or by virtue of section 64(2)(k). (3) For the purposes of subsection (2) “excluded information” means— (a) information which is in the form of a summary or collection of information so framed as not to enable information relating to any particular person to be ascertained from it; (b) information which at the time of the disclosure is or has already been made available to the public from other sources; (c) information which was obtained more than 70 years before the date of the disclosure.

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.
