Local Government and Public Involvement in Health 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
As published
84 Review being undertaken: duty to respond to petition or application
(1) This section applies if the following conditions are met—
(a) a principal council is in the course of undertaking a community governance review of part of the council's area (“the current review”);
(b) the council receives a community governance petition or community governance application which relates to part of the council's area;
(c) the petition area or application area is wholly outside the area under review.
(2) The principal council must follow one of the options in subsection (4), (5) or (6).
(3) But the duty in subsection (2) does not apply if—
(a) the principal council has concluded a previous community governance review within the relevant two-year period, and
(b) in the council's opinion the petition area or application area covers the whole or a significant part of the area to which the previous review related.
For further provision about this case, see section 85.
(4) The first option mentioned in subsection (2) is for the principal council to modify the terms of reference of the current review so that they allow for the petition or application to be considered.
(5) The second option is for the principal council to undertake a community governance review that—
(a) is separate from the current review, and
(b) has terms of reference that allow for the petition or application to be considered.
(6) The third option is for the principal council to—
(a) modify the terms of reference of the current review,
(b) undertake a community governance review that is separate from the current review (“the new review”), and
(c) secure that (when taken together)—
(i) the terms of reference of the current review (as modified), and
(ii) the terms of reference of the new review,
allow for the petition or application to be considered.

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.
