Rag Flock and Other Filling Materials Act 1951 (repealed 6.1.1997)
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.

14 Powers of sampling.
(1) An authorised officer of a local authority finding on any premises entered under this Act any materials appearing to him to be filling materials to which this Act applies or any article appearing to him to contain or be likely to contain filling materials to which this Act applies may take samples. The Schedule to this Act shall have effect where under this subsection samples are taken from the filling materials in any article. (2) Where an officer takes samples under the foregoing subsection, he shall observe the following procedure, that is to say, he shall divide the sample into three parts, each part to be marked, and sealed or fastened up, in such manner as its nature will permit, and shall— (a) if required so to do, deliver one part to the occupier of the premises or the person for the time being in charge of the premises; (b) retain one part for future comparison; and (c) if he thinks fit, submit one part for testing whether the filling materials are clean.

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.
