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
2C Meaning of “high-risk reservoir”
(1) the appropriate agency may designate a large raised reservoir as a high-risk reservoir if— (a) the appropriate agency thinks that, in the event of an uncontrolled release of water from the reservoir, human life could be endangered, and (b) the reservoir does not satisfy the conditions (if any) specified in regulations made by the Minister. (2) The conditions specified in regulations under subsection (1)(b) may, in particular, include conditions as to— (a) the purpose for which the reservoir is used, (b) the materials used to construct the reservoir, (c) the way in which the reservoir is constructed, and (d) the maintenance of the reservoir. (3) Sections 10 to 12 make provision about requirements for inspection, monitoring and supervision of high-risk reservoirs. (4) References in this Act to a “high-risk reservoir” are references to a large raised reservoir that has been designated under section 2B as a high-risk reservoir.

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.
