Children’s Homes Act 1982 (repealed 14.10.1991)
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
9 Inspection of registered homes.
(1) Any person authorised in that behalf by the responsible authority may at all reasonable times enter and inspect any registered home or any premises which he has reasonable cause to believe are being used as part of such a home. (2) Any person inspecting a home under this section may in particular— (a) inspect any child accommodated in the home; and (b) require the production of, and inspect, any records required to be kept in accordance with regulations made under section 8 above. (3) A person who proposes to exercise any power conferred by this section shall, if so required, produce some duly authenticated document showing his authority to exercise the power. (4) Any person who without reasonable cause obstructs any person in the exercise of any power conferred by this section shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding £500. (5) A refusal to allow any such person as is referred to in subsection (1) above to enter a registered home or such premises as are there mentioned shall be deemed, for the purposes of section 40 of the Children and Young Persons Act 1933 (search warrants), to be a reasonable cause to suspect that a child in the home or premises is being neglected in a manner likely to cause him unnecessary suffering or injury to health.

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.
