Statistics and Registration Service Act 2007
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
16 Requests for assessment: supplementary
(1) Where in the case of any official statistics other than statistics produced by the Board— (a) the appropriate authority has not under section 12(1) requested the Board to assess and determine whether the Code of Practice for Statistics has been complied with, and (b) the Board is of the view that it would be appropriate for it to do so, the Board must notify the appropriate authority accordingly. (2) Where the appropriate authority is a Minister of the Crown, the Board must lay a copy of its notification under subsection (1) before Parliament. (3) A Minister of the Crown, on receiving notification under subsection (1), must provide the Board with— (a) a statement that he intends to make a request under section 12(1) in relation to the statistics, or (b) a statement that he does not intend to make such a request, and must lay a copy of the statement before Parliament. (4) A statement under subsection (3)(a) must include a timetable for making the request. (5) A statement under subsection (3)(b) must give reasons for not making the request. (6) Where the National Statistician determines not to make a request under section 12(1) in relation to any official statistics produced by the Board, he must— (a) make a statement that he does not intend to make such a request, giving reasons, and (b) lay a copy of the statement before Parliament. (7) In this section “appropriate authority” has the same meaning as in section 12(1).

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.
