Crossrail Act 2008
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
25 Award of Crossrail franchises to public-sector operators

(2) The following may in particular be taken into account in determining whether, for the purposes of subsection (1)(b), services are likely to be subject to substantial disruption— (a) the frequency with which the services are likely to be disrupted; (b) the duration of the period in which the services are likely to be disrupted (and, in particular, its duration relative to the length of the franchise term); (c) the severity of any likely disruption. (3) In this section— “Crossrail passenger service” has the meaning given by section 23(4); “franchisee”, “franchise agreement” and “franchise term” have the meanings given by section 23 of the Railways Act 1993 (designated passenger services to be provided under franchise agreements).

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.
