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.

207 Recoupment: adjustment between local authorities
(1) Regulations may provide, in relation to cases where any provision for education to which this section applies is made by a local authority (in this section referred to as “the providing authority”) in respect of a person who belongs to the area of another local authority, for requiring or authorising the other authority (in this section referred to as the “home authority”) to pay to the providing authority—
(a) such amount as the authorities may agree, or
(b) failing agreement, such amount as may be determined by or under the regulations.
(2) This section applies to —
(a) primary education;
(b) secondary education;
(c) education provided under section 562C of the Education Act 1996 (detention of persons with special educational needs: appropriate special educational provision).
(3) The regulations may provide for the amounts payable by one authority to another—
(a) to reflect the whole or any part of the average costs incurred by local authorities in the provision of education (whether in England and Wales as a whole or in any particular area or areas), and
(b) to be based on figures for average costs determined by such body or bodies representing local authorities, or on such other figures relating to costs so incurred, as the Secretary of State, or as the case may be the National Assembly for Wales, considers appropriate.
(4) Regulations made under this section in relation to Wales by the National Assembly for Wales may provide for the amounts so payable, in such cases as may be specified in or determined in accordance with the regulations, to be such amounts as may be determined—
(a) where the providing authority and the home authority are both in Wales, by the National Assembly for Wales, or
(b) where the providing authority is in Wales and the home authority is in England, by the Assembly with the consent of the Secretary of State.
(5) Any dispute between local authorities in Wales as to whether one of them is entitled to be paid any amount by another under the regulations shall be determined by the National Assembly for Wales.
(6) Any dispute between a providing authority in Wales and a home authority in England as to whether the providing authority is entitled to be paid any amount by the home authority under the regulations shall be determined by the National Assembly for Wales with the consent of the Secretary of State.
(7) In this section references to provision for education include provision of any benefits or services for which provision is made by or under this Act or any other enactment relating to education.

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.
