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

(1) The Secretary of State may by order amend, or revoke provisions of, the Heathrow Express Order— (a) for the purpose of restricting or ending an exemption granted by a relevant provision, (b) for the purpose of adding to the conditions subject to which such an exemption is granted, or (c) for the purpose of making such a condition more onerous. (2) For the purposes of subsection (1), each of the following is a “relevant provision”— article 3(1) of the Heathrow Express Order, and article 4(1) of the Heathrow Express Order. (3) Where exercise of the power under subsection (1) has effect to end an exemption granted by article 3(1) of the Heathrow Express Order in relation to any track, station or depot, the Secretary of State may by order— (a) make provision for, or in connection with, treating as void— (i) every access contract, including one entered into before the making of the order, where the permission concerned is permission to use that facility, or (ii) a contract such as is mentioned in sub-paragraph (i) if it is specified in the order or is of a description so specified; (b) provide for exceptions to any provision made under paragraph (a). (4) The powers— (a) under subsection (1), so far as relating to an exemption granted by article 3(1) of the Heathrow Express Order, and (b) under subsection (3)(a), are exercisable only for the purpose of, or for purposes that include, facilitating Crossrail passenger services.

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.
