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
14 Withdrawal of nominated person from transaction under s.12B or 12C.
(1) Where notice has been duly served on the landlord under—
section 12B (right of qualifying tenants to compel sale, &c by purchaser), or
section 12C (right of qualifying tenants to compel grant of new tenancy by superior landlord),
the nominated person may at any time before a binding contract is entered into in pursuance of the notice, serve notice under this section on the purchaser (a “ notice of withdrawal”) indicating an intention no longer to proceed with the disposal.
(2) If at any such time the nominated person becomes aware that the number of qualifying tenants of the constituent flats desiring to proceed with the disposal is less than the requisite majority of those tenants, he shall forthwith serve a notice of withdrawal.
(3) If a notice of withdrawal is served under this section the purchaser may recover from the nominated person any costs reasonably incurred by him in connection with the disposal down to the time when the notice is served on him.
(4) If a notice of withdrawal is served at a time when proceedings arising under or by virtue of this Part are pending before the court or the Upper Tribunal, the liability of the nominated person for any costs incurred by the purchaser as mentioned in subsection (3) shall be such as may be determined by the court or (as the case may be) by the Tribunal.
(5) The costs that may be recovered by the purchaser under this section do not include any costs incurred by him in connection with an application to the appropriate tribunal.

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.
