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.

47 Application of insurance money on completion of a sale or exchange.
(1) Where after the date of any contract for sale or exchange of property, money becomes payable under any policy of insurance maintained by the vendor in respect of any damage to or destruction of property included in the contract, the money shall, on completion of the contract, be held or receivable by the vendor on behalf of the purchaser and paid by the vendor to the purchaser on completion of the sale or exchange, or so soon thereafter as the same shall be received by the vendor.
(2) This section applies only to contracts made after the commencement of this Act, and has effect subject to—
(a) any stipulation to the contrary contained in the contract,
(b) any requisite consents of the insurers,
(c) the payment by the purchaser of the proportionate part of the premium from the date of the contract.
(3) This section applies to a sale or exchange by an order of the court, as if—
(a) for references to the “vendor” there were substituted references to the “person bound by the order”;
(b) for the reference to the completion of the contract there were substituted a reference to the payment of the purchase or equality money (if any) into court;
(c) for the reference to the date of the contract there were substituted a reference to the time when the contract becomes binding.

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.
