Crime (International Co-operation) Act 2003
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
57 Recognition in United Kingdom of Republic of Ireland driving disqualification
(1) Where this section applies, the appropriate Minister— (a) must give the offender a notice under this section if the unexpired period of the Republic of Ireland disqualification is not less than three months, and (b) may give him a notice under this section if that period is less than three months. (2) The unexpired period of the Republic of Ireland disqualification is— (a) the period of the Republic of Ireland disqualification, less (b) any period of that disqualification which is treated by regulations made by the appropriate Minister as having been served in the Republic of Ireland . (3) The provision which may be made by regulations under subsection (2)(b) includes provision for treating any period during which a central authority or competent authority of the Republic of Ireland has seized a licence without returning it as a period which has been served there. (4) If the appropriate Minister gives the offender a notice under this section, the offender is disqualified in each part of the United Kingdom— (a) for the relevant period, and (b) if the Republic of Ireland disqualification is also effective until a condition is satisfied, until the condition or a corresponding prescribed condition is satisfied. (5) The relevant period is the period which— (a) begins at the end of the period of 21 days beginning with the day on which the notice is given, and (b) is equal to the unexpired period of the Republic of Ireland disqualification. (6) But if the Republic of Ireland disqualification is at any time removed otherwise than in prescribed circumstances, the offender ceases to be disqualified in each part of the United Kingdom from that time. (7) The appropriate Minister may make regulations substituting a longer period for the period for the time being mentioned in subsection (5)(a). (8) Where the Republic of Ireland disqualification is for life— (a) the condition in subsection (1)(a) is to be treated as satisfied, and (b) the other references in this section and section 58 to the unexpired period of the Republic of Ireland disqualification are to be read as references to a disqualification for life.

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.
