Agriculture and Forestry (Financial Provisions) Act 1991
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
3 Additional grants for persons entitled to EU suckler cow premiums.
(1) The Minister may by regulations made with the consent of the Treasury make provision for the payment out of money provided by Parliament of a grant— (a) to any person who under the EU suckler cow scheme is entitled to receive a premium financed by the Guarantee Section of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund; and (b) of an amount not exceeding that which the United Kingdom is authorised under that scheme to pay by way of additional premium to any such person. (2) Regulations under this section may in particular— (a) require applications for a grant to be made within a specified period and at specified times; (b) make provision as to the amount of any grant; (c) make the payment of a grant subject to compliance with conditions, including conditions requiring repayment (or repayment with interest) in specified circumstances; (d) confer powers of entry and inspection and impose requirements as to the keeping, preservation and production of records and other documents for the purpose of verifying entitlement to grants; (e) in connection with any provision made by virtue of paragraph (d) above or the making of false statements for the purpose of obtaining a grant create offences punishable on summary conviction with a fine not exceeding level 5 on the standard scale; (f) make such further incidental and supplementary provision as the Minister thinks necessary or expedient for the purposes of this section. (3) The power to make regulations under this section shall be exercisable by statutory instrument subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament. (4) In this section— “the EU suckler cow scheme means the scheme introduced by” Council Regulation (EEC) No 1357/80 as subsequently amended; “the Minister” means, in relation to England, the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and, in relation to Wales or Scotland, the Secretary of State concerned with agriculture in those parts of the United Kingdom but regulations under this section may be made for any two or more of those parts by the relevant Ministers acting jointly.

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.
