Competition and Service (Utilities) Act 1992
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.

(2) It shall be the duty of the Council— (a) to inform the person by or on whose behalf the representations are made that he may have the right to refer his dispute to the Director; and (b) to make such investigations with respect to the matter to which the representations relate as may be specified in a direction given by the Director. (3) Any such direction may be given so as to apply generally or to a specified class of matter or particular matter and may, in particular, specify in relation to any investigation which the Council is required to make under this section— (a) the practice and procedure which it is to follow in conducting its investigation; and (b) the information which it is to give to the Director with respect to the matter investigated.

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.
