Railways Act 1993
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
16C Making of applications for directions.
(1) An application for a direction under section 16A above must be made to the Office of Rail and Road in writing. (2) The application must— (a) specify the person to whom the direction would be given; (b) state what it would require him to do; and (c) give the applicant’s reasons for considering that person to be an appropriate person to do what the direction would require him to do. (3) The applicant may at any time vary what the direction would require that person to do by giving to the Office of Rail and Road notice in writing of the variation; but if the applicant is a person other than the appropriate facilities authority such a notice may only be given with the consent of the Authority. (4) The application or notice of a variation may be accompanied by any written representations which the applicant wishes to make in relation to the direction.

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.
