Planning (Hazardous Substances) Act 1990
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

(2A) A quantity of a substance which falls within more than one paragraph of subsection (2) shall only be counted once. (3) The temporary presence of a hazardous substance while it is being transported from one place to another is not to be taken into account unless– (a) it is unloaded; or (b) it is present on, over or under land in respect of which there is a hazardous substances consent for any substance, or in respect of which (not taking into account the quantity of the substance being transported) there is required to be such a consent for any substance.

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.
