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
69B Views on leave of absence
(1) If a person who is the victim of an offence in respect of which a relevant determination has been made makes to the Department of Justice representations falling within subsection (2) the Department of Justice has the obligations specified in subsection (3). (2) Representations fall within this subsection if they are to the effect that the grant of leave of absence to the person in respect of whom the determination has been made would threaten the safety, or otherwise adversely affect the well-being, of— (a) the actual victim of the offence in respect of which the determination was made, or (b) a person who is regarded for the purposes of a scheme under section 69A as a victim of that offence by virtue of section 68(5) (as applied by section 69A(12)). (3) The Department of Justice must— (a) have regard to the representations in deciding whether the Department should give its consent to leave of absence being granted, and (b) inform the victim of any such decision. (4) Section 69A(3) (relevant determination) applies for the purposes of this section.

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.
