Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024
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.

(1) An enforcer may (subject to subsection (2)) apply to the appropriate court for an enforcement order or an interim enforcement order if the enforcer considers that— (a) a person has engaged in, is engaging in or is likely to engage in a commercial practice which constitutes a relevant infringement, or (b) a person is an accessory to such a practice. (2) An enforcer may make an application in respect of a relevant infringement only if— (a) in the case of a commercial practice in breach of an enactment listed in the first column of the Table in Part 1 of Schedule 15, the enforcer is an authorised enforcer in respect of that enactment in accordance with the second column of that Table; (b) in the case of a commercial practice in breach of an obligation or rule of law listed in the first column of the Table in Part 2 of Schedule 15, the enforcer is an authorised enforcer in respect of that obligation or rule of law in accordance with the second column of that Table. (3) An application for an enforcement order or an interim enforcement order— (a) must be made in respect of the person the enforcer considers falls within subsection (1)(a) or (b) (“the respondent”), and (b) must (where known) name the respondent.

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.
