Marriage (Wales) Act 2010
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.

(1) In this Act “the 1949 Act” means the Marriage Act 1949 (c. 76) and, unless the context otherwise requires, expressions used in this Act have the same meaning as in the 1949 Act. (2) Where a marriage has been solemnized— (a) in accordance with section 2(1), or (b) on the authority of a common licence granted by virtue of section 3, it shall not be necessary in support of the marriage to give any proof that either party had a qualifying connection with the parish in which the marriage was solemnized and no evidence shall be given to prove the contrary in any proceedings touching the validity of the marriage.

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.
