Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011
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
72 Amendment of police areas: term of office of commissioner
(1) Subsection (2) applies where a person becomes police and crime commissioner for a resulting police area by virtue of, or of an election required to be held by, a police area alteration order. (2) The person's term of office as police and crime commissioner ends at the time when it would end had the person been elected as police and crime commissioner at the previous ordinary election of commissioners in England or, as the case may be, Wales. (3) In this section— “police area alteration order” means— an order under section 32 of the Police Act 1996 (power to alter police areas by order); an order under section 10 of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 (implementation of Boundary Committee for England review of local government areas) which alters the boundary of any police area in England; an order under section 45 of the Democracy and Boundary Commission Cymru etc. Act 2013 (recommendations for changes to police areas) which alters the boundary of any police area in Wales; “resulting police area”, in relation to a police area alteration order, means a police area existing immediately after the order comes into force— which is created by the order, or any part of whose boundary results from the order. (4) References in this section to the coming into force of a police area alteration order are references to the changes in police areas made by the order taking effect.

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.
