Reserve Forces (Safeguard of Employment) Act 1985
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
17 Dismissal prohibited.
(1) If the employer of a person who may be required to enter upon a period of whole-time service— (a) terminates that person’s employment without his consent at any time when he is not in that service, and (b) does so solely or mainly by reason of any duties or liabilities which that person may be liable to perform or discharge— (i) if required to report at any time or place with a view to entering into whole-time service; or (ii) if he enters upon a period of whole-time service, the employer is guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. (2) If in any proceedings under this section the court is of opinion that there is reasonable cause to believe that the duties or liabilities mentioned in subsection (1) caused or contributed to the termination of the employment, the employment shall be deemed to have been terminated by reason of those duties or liabilities, unless the employer proves that the termination was for a reason not connected with them.

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.
