Criminal Jurisdiction Act 1975
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.

(1) In this Act, unless the context otherwise requires— “arrestable offence” has the meaning given by section 2(1) of the Criminal Law Act (Northern Ireland) 1967; “enactment” includes an enactment of the Parliament of Northern Ireland; “extra-territorial offence” has the meaning given by section 1 of this Act; “extra-territorial offence under the law of the Republic of Ireland” has the meaning given by section 3(4) of this Act; “rules of court” means rules under section 7 of the Northern Ireland Act 1962. (2) Any reference in this Act, except so far as the context otherwise requires, to an enactment shall be construed as a reference to that enactment as amended, applied or extended by or under any other enactment, including this Act. (3) It is hereby declared that in applying section 38(1) of the Interpretation Act 1889 (effect of repeal and re-enactment) for the construction of references in this Act to other Acts account is to be taken of repeal and re-enactment— (a) by a Measure under the Northern Ireland Constitution Act 1973, or (b) by an Order in Council under the Northern Ireland Act 1974, (as being provisions which by virtue of paragraph 1 of Schedule 5 to the said Act of 1973 and paragraph 1(7) of Schedule 1 to the Act of 1974 are included in statutory references to Acts of the Parliament of Northern Ireland). (4) The provisions of this Act giving power to prohibit the disclosure of the name and other particulars of witnesses and other persons are without prejudice to any power of the same kind exercisable under the inherent jurisdiction of any court or judge.

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.
