Voluntary Hospitals (Paying Patients) Act 1936
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 Accommodation for and charges to paying patients.
(1) Notwithstanding the trusts express or implied upon which the property and funds of a voluntary hospital are held, and notwithstanding any prohibition or restriction imposed by or under any local Act, being an Act relating expressly to the hospital, charter, scheme, deed, will, or otherwise, not being a prohibition or restriction imposed by a public general Act or by any local Act not so relating, the committee of management may provide and maintain on such land from time to time belonging to them such new buildings or such existing buildings of the hospital, or such parts of such new or existing buildings and such and so many beds therein and for such period as the Charity Commission may on the application of the committee of management from time to time by Order authorise, for the accommodation and treatment of patients who are able and willing to make payment therefor. (2) The committee of management may charge such patients as aforesaid for accommodation and maintenance (including such medical and surgical attendance and treatment as is given by the resident staff of the hospital) in accordance with such scale of charges as may be specified in an Order. (3) An Order may include any consequential or incidental provisions appearing to the Charity Commission to be necessary or desirable. (4) The Charity Commission may, from time to time on the application of the committee of management, vary an Order, and, if in the opinion of the Commission there has been any material change in the circumstances existing at the time when an Order was made, it may, after giving to the committee of management and to any other persons appearing to the Commission to be concerned an opportunity of making representations, of its own motion vary or revoke the Order.

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.
