Immigration and Asylum Act 1999
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
13 Proof of identity of persons to be removed or deported.
(1) This section applies if a person— (a) is to be removed from the United Kingdom to a country of which he is a national or citizen; but (b) does not have a valid passport or other document establishing his identity and nationality or citizenship and permitting him to travel. (2) If the country to which the person is to be removed indicates that he will not be admitted to it unless identification data relating to him are provided by the Secretary of State, he may provide them with such data. (3) In providing identification data, the Secretary of State must not disclose whether the person concerned has made a claim for asylum. (4) For the purposes of Article 49(1)(d) of the UK GDPR, the provision under this section of identification data is a transfer of personal data which is necessary for important reasons of public interest. (4A) “The UK GDPR” has the same meaning as in Parts 5 to 7 of the Data Protection Act 2018 (see section 3(10) and (14) of that Act). (5) “Identification data” means— (a) fingerprints taken under section 141; or (b) data collected in accordance with regulations made under section 144. (6) “Removed” means removed as a result of directions given under section 10 or under Schedule 2 or 3 to the 1971 Act.

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.
