Rent (Agriculture) Act 1976
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
27 Applications to housing authority concerned.
(1) An application may be made by the occupier of land used for agriculture to the housing authority concerned (“the authority”) on the ground that— (a) vacant possession is or will be needed of a dwelling-house which is subject to a protected occupancy or statutory tenancy or an assured agricultural occupancy, or which is let on or subject to a tenancy to which subsection (2) below applies, in order to house a person who is or is to be employed in agriculture by the applicant, and that person’s family, (b) the applicant is unable to provide, by any reasonable means, suitable alternative accommodation for the occupier of the dwelling-house, and (c) the authority ought, in the interests of efficient agriculture, to provide the suitable alternative accommodation. (2) This subsection applies to any tenancy which is a protected or statutory tenancy for the purposes of the Rent Act 1977 and which— (a) if it were a tenancy at a low rent, and (b) if (where relevant) any earlier tenancy granted to the tenant, or to a member of his family, had been a tenancy at a low rent, would be a protected occupancy or statutory tenancy. (3) In this Act the “housing authority concerned” is the local housing authority within the meaning of the Housing Act 1985 and assured agricultural occupancy has the same meaning as in Chapter III of Part I of the Housing Act 1988.

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.
