Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Act 2011
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
23 Offence
(1) An individual is guilty of an offence if— (a) a TPIM notice is in force in relation to the individual, and (b) the individual contravenes, without reasonable excuse, any measure specified in the TPIM notice. (1A) Where an individual— (a) is subject to a measure specified under paragraph 2 of Schedule 1 (a “travel measure”), and (b) leaves the United Kingdom or travels outside the United Kingdom, subsection (1)(b) has effect, in relation to that act, with the omission of the words “without reasonable excuse”. (2) If the individual has the permission of the Secretary of State by virtue of Schedule 1 for an act which would, without that permission, contravene such a measure, the individual contravenes that measure by virtue of that act if the act is not in accordance with the terms of the permission. (3) An individual guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable— (a) on conviction on indictment, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 5 years or to a fine, or to both; (b) on summary conviction in England and Wales, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding the general limit in a magistrates’ court or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both; (c) on summary conviction in Northern Ireland, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 6 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both; (d) on summary conviction in Scotland, to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 12 months or to a fine not exceeding the statutory maximum, or to both. (3A) Where an individual commits an offence under subsection (1) by contravening a travel measure, subsection (3)(a) has effect as if “10 years” were substituted for “5 years”. (4) In relation to an offence committed before 2 May 2022, the reference in subsection (3)(b) to the general limit in a magistrates’ court is to be read as a reference to 6 months. (5) Where an individual is convicted by or before a court of an offence under subsection (1), it is not open to that court to make in respect of the offence— (a) an order under section 80 of the Sentencing Code (conditional discharge); (b) an order under section 227A of the Criminal Procedure (Scotland) Act 1995 (community payback orders); or (c) an order under Article 4(1)(b) of the Criminal Justice (Northern Ireland) Order 1996 (S.I. 1996/3160 (N.I. 24)) (conditional discharge in Northern Ireland).

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.
