Child Support Act 1991
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
39E Variation and revocation of orders following payment
(1) If part of the amount specified in an order under section 39B is paid to any person authorised to receive it, the court may, on an application made by the Secretary of State or the person against whom the order is made, by order— (a) reduce the period for which the order under section 39B is to have effect; or (b) revoke the order under section 39B. (2) If the whole of the amount specified in an order under section 39B is paid to any person authorised to receive it, the court shall, on an application made by the Secretary of State or the person against whom the order is made, by order revoke the order under section 39B. (3) The Secretary of State may make representations to the court as to the amount which should be paid before it would be appropriate to make an order under subsection (1) revoking an order under section 39B, and the person against whom the order was made may reply to those representations. (4) The court may exercise the powers conferred on it by subsection (1) or (2) without the need for an application where money found on a search under section 39D(1) is applied towards payment of the amount specified in the order under section 39B. (5) Where a court makes an order under this section, it shall send notice of that fact to the Secretary of State; and the notice shall contain such particulars and be sent in such manner and to such address as the Secretary of State may determine.

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.
