Local Government Grants (Social Need) Act 1969
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
1 Provision for grants.
(1) The Secretary of State may out of moneys provided by Parliament pay grants, of such amounts as he may with the consent of the Treasury determine, to local authorities who in his opinion are required in the exercise of any of their functions to incur expenditure by reason of the existence in any urban area of special social need. (2) Grants under this section may be paid at such times, subject to such conditions and on account of such expenditure (for the year 1968-69 or any later year) as the Secretary of State may determine. (3) The expressions “local authority” and “year” have the same meaning in this section, in its application to England and Wales, as they have for purposes of the Local Government Act 1966 by virtue of section 41 of that Act and, in its application to Scotland, as they have for purposes of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1966 by virtue of section 46 of that Act except that in the application of this section to England and Wales “local authority” shall also include a fire and rescue authority created by an order under section 4A of the Fire and Rescue Services Act 2004, the London Fire Commissioner a police and crime commissioner, the Mayor's Office for Policing and Crime, a joint authority established by Part 4 of the Local Government Act 1985, an economic prosperity board established under section 88 of the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 , a combined authority established under section 103 of that Act and a combined county authority established under section 9(1) of the Levelling-up and Regeneration Act 2023.

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.
