Northern Ireland (Emergency Provisions) Act 1987 (repealed 27.8.1991)
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
26 Commencement, expiry, revival and eventual repeal of Act.
(1) This Act, except section 12 and Part III, shall come into force at the end of the period of one month beginning with the day on which it is passed, and section 12 and Part III shall come into force on such day as the Secretary of State may by order appoint. (2) An order under subsection (1)— (a) may appoint different days for different provisions, and (b) shall be made by statutory instrument. (3) The provisions of Parts II and III shall expire with 21st March 1988 unless continued in force by an order under subsection (4). (4) The Secretary of State may provide by order made by statutory instrument— (a) that all or any of the provisions of Parts II and III which are for the time being in force (including any in force by virtue of an order under this subsection) shall continue in force for a period not exceeding 12 months from the coming into operation of the order; (b) that all or any of those provisions which are for the time being in force shall cease to be in force; or (c) that all or any of those provisions which are not for the time being in force shall come into force again and remain in force for a period not exceeding 12 months from the coming into operation of the order. (5) No order under subsection (4) shall be made unless— (a) a draft of the order has been approved by resolution of each House of Parliament; or (b) it is declared in the order that it appears to the Secretary of State that by reason of urgency it is necessary to make the order without a draft havng been so approved. (6) Every order under subsection (4), except an order of which a draft has been so approved— (a) shall be laid before Parliament; and (b) unless approved by resolution of each House of Parliament before the end of the period of 40 days beginning with the date on which it was made, shall cease to have effect at the end of that period (but without prejudice to anything previously done or to the making of a new order). In reckoning for the purposes of this subsection any period of 40 days, no account shall be taken of any period during which Parliament is dissolved or prorogued or during which both Houses are adjourned for more than four days. (7) With the exception of section 13(6) to (10), this subsection and section 27, this Act shall, by virtue of this subsection, be repealed immediately after the repeal of the 1978 Act takes effect under section 33(9) of that Act (as amended by section 13(4) above).

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.
