Chronically Sick and Disabled Persons Act 1970
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 Information as to need for and existence of welfare services.
(1) It shall be the duty of every local authority having functions under section 29 of the National Assistance Act 1948 to inform themselves of the number of persons to whom that section applies within their area and of the need for the making by the authority of arrangements under that section for such persons. (2) Every such local authority— (a) shall cause to be published from time to time at such times and in such manner as they consider appropriate general information as to the services provided under arrangements made by the authority under the said section 29 which are for the time being available in their area; and (b) shall ensure that any such person as aforesaid who uses any of those services is informed of any other service provided by the authority (whether under any such arrangements or not) which in the opinion of the authority is relevant to his needs and of any service provided by any other authority or organisation which in the opinion of the authority is so relevant and of which particulars are in the authority’s possession. (3) This section shall come into operation on such date as the Secretary of State may by order made by statutory instrument appoint. (4) Subsection (5) applies to local authorities in England. (5) A local authority must ensure that any disabled child who uses services which are provided under arrangements made by the authority under Part 3 of the Children Act 1989 is informed— (a) of any other service provided by the authority (whether or not under those arrangements) which in the authority’s opinion is relevant to the child’s needs, and (b) of any service provided by another authority or organisation which in the authority’s opinion is relevant to the child’s needs and which the authority have details of.

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.
