Landlord and Tenant Act 1987
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
31 Determination of terms by ... tribunal.
(1) The appropriate tribunal shall have jurisdiction to determine the terms on which the landlord’s interest in the premises specified in an acquisition order may be acquired by the nominated person to the extent that those terms have not been determined by agreement between the landlord and either— (a) the qualifying tenants in whose favour the order was made, or (b) the nominated person; and (subject to subsection (2)) the tribunal shall determine any such terms on the basis of what appears to them to be fair and reasonable. (2) Where an application is made under this section for the tribunal to determine the consideration payable for the acquisition of a landlord’s interest in any premises, the tribunal shall do so by determining an amount equal to the amount which, in their opinion, that interest might be expected to realise if sold on the open market by a willing seller on the appropriate terms and on the assumption that none of the tenants of the landlord of any premises comprised in those premises was buying or seeking to buy that interest. (3) In subsection (2) “the appropriate terms” means all of the terms to which the acquisition of the landlord’s interest in pursuance of the order is to be subject (whether determined by agreement as mentioned in subsection (1) or on an application under this section) apart from those relating to the consideration payable. (4) On any application under this section the interests of the qualifying tenants in whose favour the acquisition order was made shall be represented by the nominated person, and accordingly the parties to any such application shall not include those tenants. (5) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (6) Nothing in this section shall be construed as authorising the appropriate tribunal to determine any terms dealing with matters in relation to which provision is made by section 32 or 33.

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.
