Child Abduction and Custody Act 1985
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
24A Power to order disclosure of child’s whereabouts.
(1) Where— (a) in proceedings for the return of a child under Part I of this Act; or (b) on an application for the recognition, registration or enforcement of a decision in respect of a child under Part II of this Act, there is not available to the court adequate information as to where the child is, the court may order any person who it has reason to believe may have relevant information to disclose it to the court. (2) A person shall not be excused from complying with an order under subsection (1) above by reason that to do so may incriminate him or his spouseor civil partner of an offence; but a statement or admission made in compliance with such an order shall not be admissible in evidence against either of them in proceedings for any offence other than perjury.

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.
