Reservoirs Act 1975
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
12B Flood plans and national security
(1) If it appears to the Secretary of State that in the interests of national security any person or class of persons referred to in any one or more of paragraphs (a) to (e) of section 12A(3) above should not be consulted about a proposed direction, he may treat that subsection as not referring to that person or to that class of person. (2) In relation to any reservoir (whether large or raised or not, as the case may be) the Secretary of State may, by written notice served on the undertakers, require them not to publish, or not to publish except as specified in the notice— (a) a flood plan prepared by them pursuant to a notice given under section 12A above; (b) any corresponding plan prepared by them other than pursuant to such a notice, and a notice under this subsection may also require the undertakers to withhold access to any such plan from any person except as specified in the notice.

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.
