Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005
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
79 Powers of entry: supplementary
(1) This section applies where an officer of a local authority enters any premises under section 77 or under a warrant issued under section 78. (2) The officer may take any steps he thinks necessary for the purpose of silencing the alarm. (3) The officer may take with him— (a) such other persons, and (b) such equipment, as he thinks necessary for the purpose of silencing the alarm. (4) The officer and any person who enters the premises with him by virtue of subsection (3) must not cause more damage to or disturbance at the premises than is necessary for the purpose of silencing the alarm. (5) If the premises are unoccupied or (where the premises are occupied) the occupier of the premises is temporarily absent the officer must— (a) leave a notice at the premises stating what action has been taken on the premises under this section and section 77 or 78; (b) leave the premises (so far as is reasonably practicable) as effectively secured against entry as he found them. (6) But the officer is not required by virtue of subsection (5)(b) to re-set the alarm. (7) Any expenses reasonably incurred by the local authority in connection with entering the premises, silencing the alarm and complying with subsection (5) may be recovered by the authority from the responsible person. (8) A warrant under section 78 continues in force until— (a) the alarm has been silenced, and (b) the officer has complied with subsection (5) (if that subsection applies).

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.
