Justice (Northern Ireland) Act 2002
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 Complaints about holders of judicial office
(1) The Lord Chief Justice must prepare a code of practice relating to the handling of complaints against any person who holds a protected judicial office. (2) The code must include provision for any complaints appearing to the Lord Chief Justice— (a) to involve a serious allegation of misbehaviour or inability to perform the functions of an office, and (b) to have a reasonable prospect of being substantiated, to be referred to a tribunal for it to provide advice about any steps which should be taken to deal with the complaint. (3) The Lord Chief Justice may from time to time prepare a new code or make alterations to a code. (4) The Lord Chief Justice must publish each code prepared by him and any alterations which he makes to a code (or the code as altered).

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.
