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
As published
92 Benefit forgone for unabated sick pay
(1) This section applies to any arrangement—
(a) which relates to pay during absence from work which can be abated on account of benefit unless the benefit is not claimed or paid ; and
(b) which is for the time being approved by the Secretary of State.
(2) In this section "benefit" means any of the following, namely—
sickness benefit,
invalidity benefit,
maternity allowance,
injury benefit, and
earnings-related supplement under section 14(7) or 22(4).
(3) A person who, in pursuance of any such arrangement, has not claimed benefit but would have been entitled to the benefit if he had claimed it shall, unless or except so far as regulations provide otherwise, be deemed to be entitled to the benefit for all the purposes of this Act (except so as to confer a right to payment of the benefit).
(4) If the Secretary of State so directs, any approval given by him under the former principal Act, or the former Industrial Injuries Act, or under any instrument having effect under either of those Acts, is to be treated as if it were approval given under subsection (1) above.

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.
