Manoeuvres Act 1958
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.

5 Powers of Manœuvres commissions to give directions.
(1) Subject to section six of this Act, a Manœuvres commission formed in connection with a Manœuvres Order may issue such directions as the commission may consider necessary or expedient for the purpose of avoiding damage or disturbance in consequence of the execution of the Manœuvres authorised by the Order beyond what is necessary for the effective carrying out of those Manœuvres. (2) Any such directions shall be so framed as to impose requirements either on the authorised forces or on, or on any class of, occupiers of land, being land comprised within the Manœuvres area or land in the vicinity of land so comprised. (3) Requirements imposed by the directions on the authorised forces may, where the Commission consider it necessary or expedient for avoiding damage or disturbance, include provisions precluding those forces from entering upon land specified in the directions or from using a source of water so specified, or restricting entry upon such land or the use of such land or such a source of water by those forces, notwithstanding that the land or source of water is within the Manœuvres area; and it shall be the duty of the officer directing the Manœuvres to issue such instructions to the authorised forces as, in the opinion of that officer, will secure compliance with any such requirements. (4) If, where a requirement has been imposed by any such directions on the occupier of any land, that occupier without reasonable cause refuses or fails to comply with that requirement and in consequence thereof any livestock of his is injured, or any other property of his is damaged, he shall not be entitled to compensation in respect of that injury or damage under section seven of this Act. (5) Where, by virtue of subsection (3) of section four of this Act, two Manœuvres commissions have been formed in connection with any Manœuvres Order, the power to issue directions conferred by this section may be exercised by those commissions either separately in relation to their respective parts of the Manœuvres area or jointly in relation to the whole of that area.

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.
