Natural Environment and Rural Communities Act 2006
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
83 Particular powers
(1) The fact that a function is conferred by or under this Act or an Act passed after the passing of this Act does not prevent it from being the subject of an agreement. (2) The Secretary of State or a designated body (“A”) may, under an agreement, authorise a designated body (“B”) to perform a function even though under the relevant enactments or subordinate legislation— (a) the function is conferred on A by reference to specified circumstances or cases and the same type of function is conferred on B in different specified circumstances or cases, (b) the function is exercisable by A and B jointly, (c) B is required to be, or may be, consulted about the function (whether generally or in specified circumstances), or (d) B is required to consent to the exercise of the function (whether generally or in specified circumstances). (3) An agreement may provide— (a) for the performance of a function to be subject to the fulfilment of conditions; (b) for payments to be made in respect of the performance of the function. (4) A designated body which is authorised under an agreement to perform a function— (a) is to be treated as having power to do so; (b) may, unless (or except to the extent that) the agreement provides for this paragraph not to apply— (i) authorise a committee, sub-committee, member, officer or employee of the body to perform the function on its behalf; (ii) form a body corporate and authorise that body to perform the function on its behalf. (5) However, where the designated body is a local authority— (a) subsection (4)(a) is subject to section 84(5)(a), and (b) section 84 applies in place of subsection (4)(b). (6) Subject to subsection (4)(b) and section 84, a designated body which is authorised under an agreement to perform a function may not authorise any other body or other person to perform that function.

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.
