Local Audit and Accountability Act 2014
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.

(3) The notice must be published— (a) if the relevant authority has a website, on its website; (b) otherwise, in accordance with subsection (4). (4) A relevant authority publishes a notice in accordance with this subsection if— (a) in the case of a relevant authority other than a health service body, it publishes the notice in such manner as it thinks is likely to bring the notice to the attention of persons who live in its area; (b) in the case of an integrated care board, it publishes the notice in such manner as it thinks is likely to bring the notice to the attention of— (i) the group of people for whom it has core responsibility, and (ii) anyone who lives within its area but does not fall within sub-paragraph (i) (c) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (d) in the case of an NHS trust, it publishes the notice in such manner as it thinks is likely to bring the notice to the attention of persons to whom the trust provides services for the purposes of the health service in England. (5) The relevant authority must exclude from the notice information whose disclosure would prejudice commercial confidentiality, unless there is an overriding public interest in favour of its disclosure. (6) This section is subject to Schedule 3 (further provision about appointment of local auditors) and provision made under it.

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.
