Housing Act 2004
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
143 Appeals against overcrowding notices
(1) A person aggrieved by an overcrowding notice may appeal to the appropriate tribunal within the period of 21 days beginning with the date of service of the notice. (2) Such an appeal— (a) is to be by way of a re-hearing, but (b) may be determined having regard to matters of which the authority were unaware. (3) On an appeal the tribunal may by order confirm, quash or vary the notice. (4) If an appeal is brought, the notice does not become operative until— (a) a decision is given on the appeal which confirms the notice and the period within which an appeal to the Upper Tribunal may be brought expires without any such appeal having been brought; or (b) if an appeal is brought to the Upper Tribunal, a decision is given on the appeal which confirms the notice. (5) For the purposes of subsection (4)— (a) the withdrawal of an appeal has the same effect as a decision which confirms the notice appealed against; and (b) references to a decision which confirms the notice are to a decision which confirms it with or without variation. (6) The appropriate tribunal may allow an appeal to be made to it after the end of the period mentioned in subsection (1) if it is satisfied that there is good reason for the failure to appeal before the end of that period (and for any delay since then in applying for permission to appeal out of time).

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.
