The Business Improvement Districts (Property Owners) (England) Regulations 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.
Change 1
15 Appeal against veto
(1) A person (“the appellant”) who wishes to appeal against a veto shall serve on the Secretary of State, within 28 days of the veto notice being given by the relevant billing authority, a notice in writing (“the appeal notice”) accompanied by a statement of the reasons for which the appeal is made. (2) On receipt of the appeal notice the Secretary of State shall— (a) notify the appellant and the relevant billing authority, in writing, that he has received the appeal notice; and (b) send a copy of the appeal notice to the relevant billing authority. (3) Where two or more appeal notices relate to the same veto, the Secretary of State may decide those appeals together. (4) The appeal shall be determined by way of written representations to be made to the Secretary of State. (5) Within 28 days of the date of the notice given by the Secretary of State under paragraph (2), the appellant and the relevant billing authority may serve on the Secretary of State written representations in respect of the appeal. (6) A copy of the representations made by one party to the appeal shall be sent by the Secretary of State to the other parties to the appeal and shall be accompanied by a statement explaining the effect of paragraph (7). (7) Any party to an appeal to whom a copy of representations is sent under paragraph (6) may within 14 days of receiving them serve on the Secretary of State further written representations in reply and the Secretary of State shall send a copy of any such further representations to the other parties to the appeal. (8) In deciding whether to allow an appeal, the Secretary of State shall take into account the following matters— (a) the level of support (as evidenced by the result of the BRS-BID ballot or re-ballot of a BRS-BID ballot, as the case may be) for the BRS-BID proposals; (b) the nature and extent of the conflict referred to in paragraph (1)(a) of regulation 14; (c) in relation to paragraph (1)(b) of regulation 14, the structure of the proposed BRS-BID levy and how the financial burden of the BRS-BID is to be distributed amongst persons with a relevant property interest in the geographical area of the BID; (d) the extent to which the BRS-BID proposer discussed the BRS-BID proposals with the authority before submitting the BRS-BID proposals to the authority under regulation 5; (e) whether, after the date on which the notice pursuant to regulation 5(2)(a)(ii) is received, the relevant billing authority changed any policy formally adopted by and contained in a document published by the authority so that such policy then conflicted with the BRS-BID proposals; (f) the cost incurred by any person up to the end of the period prescribed in regulation 14(2) in developing the BRS-BID proposals and canvassing in relation to the BRS-BID proposals; and (g) the nature and extent of the failure referred to in paragraph (1)(c) of regulation 14. (9) As soon as reasonably practicable after a decision has been made, the Secretary of State shall send notice of his decision in writing to the appellant and the relevant billing authority.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
