Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014
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

(1) For section 63P of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (section 63D material obtained for one purpose and used for another) there is substituted— Retention of 63D material in connection with different offence 63P (1) Subsection (2) applies if— (a) section 63D material is taken (or, in the case of a DNA profile, derived from a sample taken) from a person in connection with the investigation of an offence, and (b) the person is subsequently arrested for or charged with a different offence, or convicted of or given a penalty notice for a different offence. (2) Sections 63E to 63O and sections 63Q and 63T have effect in relation to the material as if the material were also taken (or, in the case of a DNA profile, derived from a sample taken)— (a) in connection with the investigation of the offence mentioned in subsection (1)(b), (b) on the date on which the person was arrested for that offence (or charged with it or given a penalty notice for it, if the person was not arrested).

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.
