Housing Act 1996
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
33 Disclosure of information by the Welsh Ministers.
(1) The Relevant Authority may disclose to a body or person to whom this section applies any information received by it relating to a registered social landlord— (a) for any purpose connected with the discharge of the functions of the Welsh Ministers in relation to such landlords, or (b) for the purpose of enabling or assisting that body or person to discharge any of its or his functions. (2) This section applies to the following bodies and persons— (a) any government department (including a Northern Ireland department); (b) any local authority; (c) any constable; and (d) any other body or person discharging functions of a public nature (including a body or person discharging regulatory functions in relation to any description of activities). Paragraph (d) extends to any such body or person in a country or territory outside the United Kingdom. (3) Where any information disclosed to the Welsh Ministers under section 32 is so disclosed subject to any express restriction on the further disclosure of the information, the Welsh Ministers power of disclosure under this section is exercisable subject to that restriction. A person who discloses information in contravention of any such restriction commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. (4) Any information disclosed by the Welsh Ministers under this section may be subject by the Welsh Ministers to any express restriction on the further disclosure of the information. (5) A person who discloses information in contravention of any such restriction commits an offence and is liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 3 on the standard scale. Proceedings for such an offence may be brought only by or with the consent of the Welsh Ministers or the Director of Public Prosecutions. (6) Nothing in this section shall be construed as affecting any power of disclosure exercisable apart from this section.

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.
