Children 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
101 Appeals etc.
(1) Where any application has been made under this Act or the relevant adoption provisions to a county court, the High Court may, at the instance of any party to the application, order the application to be removed to the High Court and there proceeded with on such terms as to costs as it thinks proper. (2) Subject to subsection (3), where on an application to a magistrates’ court under this Act or the relevant adoption provisions the court makes or refuses to make an order, an appeal shall lie to the High Court. (3) Where an application is made to a magistrates’ court under this Act or the relevant adoption provisions, and the court considers that the matter is one which would more conveniently be dealt with by the High Court, the magistrates’ court shall refuse to make an order, and in that case no appeal shall lie to the High Court. (4) Any order made on an appeal under subsection (2) from a decision of a magistrates’ court on an application under Part II (other than an order directing that an application shall be re-heard by a magistrates’ court) shall for the purposes of the enforcement of the order and for the purposes of sections 35, 35A and 36 be treated as if it were an order of the magistrates’ court from which the appeal was brought and not of the High Court. (5) In this section “the relevant adoption provisions” means sections 34, 34A and 35(2) of the Adoption Act 1958.

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.
