Investigatory Powers Act 2016
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
226BA Category authorisation
(1) In this Part “a category authorisation” is an authorisation that authorises a category of bulk personal datasets described in the authorisation for the purposes of this Part. (2) The head of an intelligence service, or a person acting on their behalf, may grant a category authorisation where— (a) they consider that section 226A applies to any dataset that falls within the category of datasets described in the authorisation, and (b) the decision to grant the authorisation has been approved by a Judicial Commissioner. (3) A category authorisation may describe a category of bulk personal datasets by reference to (among other things) the use to which the datasets will be put.

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.
