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
113 Exposure
In the Sexual Offences Act 2003, in section 66 (exposure), for subsection (1) substitute—
(1) A person (A) who intentionally exposes A’s genitals commits an offence if—
(a) A intends that someone will see the genitals and be caused alarm, distress or humiliation, or
(b) A exposes the genitals for the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification and does so—
(i) with the intention that someone will see them, and
(ii) being reckless as to whether someone who sees them will be caused alarm, distress or humiliation.
(1A) But where A intends only that a particular person, or particular persons, will see A’s genitals, A does not commit an offence by virtue of paragraph (b) of subsection (1) unless A is reckless as to whether that person, or at least one of those persons, will be caused alarm, distress or humiliation.

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.
