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
As published
81 Temporary orders
(1) This section applies where an application has been made to a magistrates' court under section 80 for a closure order.
(2) If the court does not make a closure order it may nevertheless order that the closure notice continues in force for a specified further period of not more than 72 hours, if satisfied—
(a) that the use of particular premises has resulted, or (if the notice is not continued) is likely soon to result, in nuisance to members of the public, or
(b) that there has been, or (if the notice is not continued) is likely soon to be, disorder near those premises associated with the use of those premises,
and that the continuation of the notice is necessary to prevent the nuisance or disorder from continuing, recurring or occurring.
(3) The court may adjourn the hearing of the application for a period of not more than 14 days to enable—
(a) the occupier of the premises,
(b) the person with control of or responsibility for the premises, or
(c) any other person with an interest in the premises,
to show why a closure order should not be made.
(4) If the court adjourns the hearing under subsection (3) it may order that the closure notice continues in force until the end of the period of the adjournment.

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.
