Norfolk and Suffolk Broads Act 1988
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
2 Functions of Authority: general.
(1) It shall be the general duty of the Authority to manage the Broads for the purposes of— (a) conserving and enhancing the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage of the Broads; (b) promoting opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of the Broads by the public; and (c) protecting the interests of navigation.

(3) In this Act “ the Broads ” means, subject to— (a) the variations made by Part I of Schedule 2 to this Act; and (b) any variation made in accordance with the provisions of Part II of that Schedule; the area coloured pink on the deposited map. (4) In discharging its functions, the Authority shall have regard to— (a) the national importance of the Broads as an area of natural beauty and one which affords opportunities for open-air recreation; (b) the desirability of protecting the natural resources of the Broads from damage; and (c) the needs of agriculture and forestry and the economic and social interests of those who live or work in the Broads.

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.
