Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999
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.

2 Registration of stakeholder pension schemes.
(1) The Authority shall keep a register of stakeholder pension schemes. (2) Subject to subsection (3), the Authority shall register a pension scheme under this section if the trustees of the scheme, or any person or persons prescribed in relation to the scheme— (a) make an application for the purpose and pay such fee as the Authority may determine; and (b) declare that each of the following is fulfilled in relation to the scheme, namely— (i) the conditions set out in subsections (2) to (9) of section 1; and (ii) such other conditions as may be prescribed under subsection (1) of that section.

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.
