Probation Service Act 1993 (repealed)
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
17 Probation committee expenditure: general.
(1) The qualifying expenses of probation committees shall, subject to subsections (4) and (5), be paid out of the metropolitan police fund or defrayed by local authorities in accordance with sections 18 and 19. (2) In this Act any reference to the qualifying expenses of a probation committee is a reference to any expenses incurred by them in the performance of their functions other than any expenses incurred by them in providing and carrying on bail hostels and probation hostels. (3) Without prejudice to the generality of subsection (2), the expenses falling within that subsection include— (a) the payment of allowances due under paragraph 10 of Schedule 1; and (b) any expenses incurred by the committee in respect of superannuation allowances, gratuities or compensation payable by virtue of regulations under section 7 of the Superannuation Act 1972 to or in respect of probation officers and clerks appointed to assist them. (4) Nothing in section 18 or 19 requires— (a) there to be paid out of the metropolitan police fund any sums which would cause the expenditure under this Act out of that fund in any year to exceed the amount which, in relation to that expenditure and that year, is the relevant amount for that fund; or (b) any local authority to defray any sums which would cause its expenditure under this Act in any year to exceed the amount which, in relation to that expenditure and that year, is the relevant amount for that authority. (5) In subsection (4) the “relevant amount”, for any year, is the amount which, in relation to expenditure out of the metropolitan police fund or expenditure of any local authority, is for the time being determined for that year by the Secretary of State under section 21(1)(b). (5A) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (6) References in this section to a local authority do not include a reference to the Receiver.

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.
