The Copyright and Rights in Performances (Licensing of Orphan Works) Regulations 2014
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 Licence fee for an orphan licence
(1) Subject to paragraph (2), on the grant of an orphan licence the authorising body— (a) shall charge the orphan licensee a reasonable licence fee for the period of the licence calculated with regard to relevant factors which shall include the level of licence fees which are achieved under licences for a similar use of similar relevant works which are not orphan works; and (b) may charge a reasonable additional amount in respect of the costs of the authorising body. (2) The authorising body shall— (a) hold all licence fees paid under this regulation in a designated account; (b) adopt accounting procedures that ring-fence in a separate account for monies received from orphan licences; and (c) retain unclaimed licence fees for a period of not less than eight years from the date of the grant of the relevant orphan licence. (3) The authorising body shall maintain and make available information that sets out, in respect of the orphan licences it grants, how the licence fee is calculated.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
