Civil Aviation Act 1980
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 Reduction of public dividend capital of British Airways Board.
(1) The public dividend capital of the British Airways Board (referred to below in this Part of this Act as “the Board”) shall be reduced by virtue of this section by the sum of £160 million, and any entitlement of the Secretary of State and any liability of the Board in respect of the Board’s public dividend capital shall be correspondingly reduced.

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.
