The Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 (External Investigations) Order 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.

(1) A disclosure order does not confer the right to require a person to answer any privileged question, provide any privileged information or produce any privileged document, except that a lawyer may be required to provide the name and address of their client. (2) A privileged question is a question which the person would be entitled to refuse to answer on grounds of legal professional privilege in proceedings in the High Court. (3) Privileged information is any information which the person would be entitled to refuse to provide on grounds of legal professional privilege in proceedings in the High Court. (4) Privileged material is any material which the person would be entitled to refuse to produce on grounds of legal professional privilege in proceedings in the High Court. (5) A disclosure order does not confer the right to require a person to produce excluded material. (6) A disclosure order has effect in spite of any restriction on the disclosure of information (however imposed). (7) An appropriate officer may take copies of any documents produced in compliance with a requirement to produce them which is imposed under a disclosure order. (8) Documents so produced may be retained for so long as it is necessary to retain them (as opposed to a copy of them) in connection with the external investigation. (9) But if an appropriate officer has reasonable grounds for believing that— (a) the documents may need to be produced for the purposes of any legal proceedings, and (b) the appropriate officer might otherwise be unavailable for those purposes, the documents may be retained until the proceedings are concluded. (10) Material produced in compliance with a disclosure order may be sent to the overseas authority which made the request for assistance or to the Secretary of State for forwarding to that overseas authority.

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.
