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.

68 Settlement of claims by arbitration.
(1) Without prejudice to any other provision of this Act, any claim of whatever nature by the tenant or the landlord of an agricultural holding against his landlord or his tenant, being a claim which arises—
(a) under this Act or any custom or agreement, and
(b) on or out of the termination of the tenancy of the holding or part thereof,
shall, subject to the provisions of this section, be determined by arbitration.
(2) Without prejudice to any other provision of this Act, no such claim as aforesaid shall be enforceable unless before the expiration of two months from the termination of the tenancy the claimant has served notice in writing on his landlord or his tenant, as the case may be, of his intention to make the claim.
A notice under this subsection shall specify the nature of the claim, and it shall be a sufficient specification thereof if the notice refers to the statutory provision, custom, or term of an agreement under which the claim is made.
(3) The landlord and the tenant may within the period of four months from the termination of the tenancy by agreement in writing settle any such claim as aforesaid, and the Secretary of State may upon the application of the landlord or the tenant made within that period extend the said period by two months and, on a second such application made during these two months, by a further two months.
(4) Where before the expiration of the said period and any extension thereof under the last foregoing subsection any such claim as aforesaid has not been settled, the claim shall cease to be enforceable unless before the expiration of one month from the end of the said period and any such extension, or within such longer time as the Secretary of State may in special circumstances allow, an arbiter has been appointed by agreement between the landlord and the tenant under the provisions of this Act in that behalf or an application for the appointment of an arbiter under those provisions has been made by the landlord or the tenant.
(5) Where a tenant lawfully remains in occupation of part of an agricultural holding after the termination of a tenancy, references in subsections (2) and (3) of this section to the termination thereof shall be construed as references to the termination of the occupation.
(6) This section shall not apply to a claim arising on or out of the termination of a tenancy before the first day of November, nineteen hundred and forty-eight.

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.
