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.

45AZB England: separate collection of industrial or commercial waste
(1) This section applies in relation to arrangements for industrial or commercial waste to be collected from premises in England by a person who, in collecting the waste—
(a) is acting in the course of a business (whether or not for profit), or
(b) is exercising a public function (including a function under section 45(1)(b) or (2)).
(2) So far as they relate to waste which is similar in nature and composition to household waste (“relevant waste”) the arrangements must meet the conditions in subsections (3) to (7).
This is subject to any provision in regulations under section 45AZC.
(3) The first condition is that recyclable relevant waste must be collected separately from other relevant waste.
(4) The second condition is that recyclable relevant waste must be collected for recycling or composting.
(5) The third condition is that recyclable relevant waste in each recyclable waste stream must be collected separately, except so far as provided by subsection (6).
(6) Recyclable relevant waste in two or more recyclable waste streams may be collected together where—
(a) it is not technically or economically practicable to collect recyclable relevant waste in those recyclable waste streams separately, or
(b) collecting recyclable relevant waste in those recyclable waste streams separately has no significant environmental benefit (having regard to the overall environmental impact of collecting it separately and of collecting it together).
(7) But recyclable relevant waste within subsection (10)(a) to (d) may not be collected together with recyclable relevant waste within subsection (10)(e).
(8) The person who presents relevant waste from the premises for collection under the arrangements must present it separated in accordance with the arrangements.
This subsection does not apply so far as the person is subject to an equivalent duty by virtue of a notice under section 47.
(9) Relevant waste is “recyclable relevant waste” if—
(a) it is within any of the recyclable waste streams, and
(b) it is of a description specified in regulations made by the Secretary of State.
(10) For the purposes of this section the “recyclable waste streams” are—
(a) glass;
(b) metal;
(c) plastic;
(d) paper and card;
(e) food waste.

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.
