Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002
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
120 Requirement to state additional grounds for application
(1) Subsection (2) applies to a person (“P”) if— (a) P has made a protection claim or a human rights claim, (b) P has made an application to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, or (c) a decision to deport or remove P has been or may be taken. (2) The Secretary of State or an immigration officer may serve a notice on P requiring P to provide a statement setting out— (a) P's reasons for wishing to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, (b) any grounds on which P should be permitted to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, and (c) any grounds on which P should not be removed from or required to leave the United Kingdom. (3) A statement under subsection (2) need not repeat reasons or grounds set out in— (a) P's protection or human rights claim, (b) the application mentioned in subsection (1)(b), or (c) an application to which the decision mentioned in subsection (1)(c) relates. (4) Subsection (5) applies to a person (“P”) if P has previously been served with a notice under subsection (2) and— (a) P requires leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom but does not have it, or (b) P has leave to enter or remain in the United Kingdom only by virtue of section 3C ... of the Immigration Act 1971 (continuation of leave pending decision or appeal). (5) Where P's circumstances have changed since the Secretary of State or an immigration officer was last made aware of them (whether in the application or claim mentioned in subsection (1) or in a statement under subsection (2) or this subsection) so that P has— (a) additional reasons for wishing to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, (b) additional grounds on which P should be permitted to enter or remain in the United Kingdom, or (c) additional grounds on which P should not be removed from or required to leave the United Kingdom, P must, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide a supplementary statement to the Secretary of State or an immigration officer setting out the new circumstances and the additional reasons or grounds. (6) In this section— “human rights claim” and “protection claim” have the same meanings as in Part 5; references to “grounds” are to grounds on which an appeal under Part 5 may be brought (see section 84).

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.
