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
As published
6 Attempts at reconciliation of parties to marriage.
(1) Provision shall be made by rules of court for requiring the legal representative acting for an applicant for a divorce order to certify whether the representative has discussed with the applicant the possibility of reconciliation and given the applicant the names and addresses of persons qualified to help effect a reconciliation between parties to a marriage who have become estranged.
(2) If at any stage of proceedings for a divorce order it appears to the court that there is a reasonable possibility of a reconciliation between the parties to the marriage, the court may adjourn the proceedings for such period as it thinks fit to enable attempts to be made to effect such a reconciliation.
The power conferred by the foregoing provision is additional to any other power of the court to adjourn proceedings.

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.
