Housing and Planning Act 1986
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
39 Abolition of Secretary of State’s power to authorise opencast working, &c.
(1) The following provisions of the Opencast Coal Act 1958 (“the 1958 Act”) shall cease to have effect— (a) sections 1 and 2 (authorisation by Secretary of State of opencast working of coal and associated provisions); and (b) section 9(2) (buildings on land comprised in a compulsory rights order), but this subsection does not affect a direction given under section 2 of the 1958 Act before the day on which the repeal of that section by paragraph (a) above comes into operation, and any repeal by this Act of an enactment which relates to directions under section 2 of the 1958 Act shall have no effect in relation to directions whose effect is continued by this subsection. (2) The repeal of section 2(4) of the 1958 Act shall not prevent the felling of a tree that could not have been felled but for paragraph (a) of that subsection (which negatived tree preservation orders).

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.
