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
84 Application for licence
(1) A licensing authority other than the Board must determine any application for a licence which is made to it. (2) The Board (acting in its capacity as a licensing authority) may determine an application for a licence which is made to it only if the applicant is entitled to make the application by virtue of a decision of the Board (acting otherwise than in its capacity as a licensing authority) under Schedule 12. (3) A licensing authority may not grant an application for a licence unless it is satisfied that if the licence is granted the applicant will comply with its licensing rules. (4) If the licensing authority grants an application for a licence, it must issue the licence as soon as reasonably practicable. (5) The licence has effect from the date on which it is issued. (6) References in this section to an application for a licence are to an application for a licence which is— (a) made to a licensing authority by a licensable body, in accordance with the authority's licensing rules, and (b) accompanied by the required application fee (if any).

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.
