Atomic Energy Act 1946
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
10 Control of production and use of atomic energy.
(1) The Minister may by order provide for prohibiting, except under the authority of a licence granted by the Minister,— (a) the working of any minerals specified in the order, being minerals from which in the opinion of the Minister any of the prescribed substances can be obtained; (b) the acquisition, production, treatment, possession, use, disposal, export or import, (i) of any of the prescribed substances; or (ii) of any minerals specified in the order, being minerals from which in the opinion of the Minister any of the prescribed substances can be obtained and not being minerals in a natural state or contained in a deposit of waste material obtained from any underground or surface working; or (iii) of any plant designed or adapted for the production or use of atomic energy or for research into matters connected therewith; and any such order may contain such incidental and supplementary provisions as the Minister considers necessary. (2) The Minister shall secure so far as practicable, by the issue of licences in such cases or classes of cases as he thinks fit, that such minerals, substances and plant as aforesaid are available for purposes of research and education, for medical and biological purposes and for commercial purposes not involving the production or use of atomic energy. (3) An order made under this section may provide for the seizure of any article in respect of which there are reasonable grounds for suspecting that a contravention of the order has been committed, and for the retention of any such article pending the institution and final determination of proceedings in respect of the contravention, and for the disposal, if the proceedings lead finally to a conviction, of any such article. (4) Any person who contravenes or fails to comply with an order made under this section or any condition subject to which a licence was granted under this section shall be guilty of an offence under this Act.

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.
