Modern Slavery Act 2015
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
14 Slavery and trafficking prevention orders on sentencing
(1) A court may make a slavery and trafficking prevention order against a person (“the defendant”) where it deals with the defendant in respect of— (a) a conviction for a slavery or human trafficking offence, (b) a finding that the defendant is not guilty of a slavery or human trafficking offence by reason of insanity, or (c) a finding that the defendant is under a disability and has done the act charged against the defendant in respect of a slavery or human trafficking offence. (2) The court may make the order only if it is satisfied that— (a) there is a risk that the defendant may commit a slavery or human trafficking offence, and (b) it is necessary to make the order for the purpose of protecting persons generally, or particular persons, from the physical or psychological harm which would be likely to occur if the defendant committed such an offence. (3) A “slavery or human trafficking offence” means an offence listed in Schedule 1. (4) The Secretary of State may by regulations amend Schedule 1. (5) For the purposes of this section, convictions and findings include those taking place before this section comes into force.

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.
