Taxis and Private Hire Vehicles (Safeguarding and Road Safety) Act 2022
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.

5 Duty to report concerns about drivers licensed in other areas
(1) This section applies where— (a) an English licensing authority (“the first authority”) becomes aware of relevant information relating to a person who has driven in the first authority’s area in reliance on a driver’s licence or a relevant licence granted by another licensing authority or a relevant authority (“the second authority”), (b) the information relates to the person’s conduct in the first authority’s area, and (c) the first authority is satisfied that, had it granted the licence, it would have considered suspending or revoking it in reliance on the information. (2) The first authority must provide to the second authority— (a) the relevant information, and (b) any other information of which it is aware which is relevant to identifying the person, before the end of the period of 10 working days beginning with the day on which the first authority became aware of the relevant information relating to the person’s conduct in its area. (3) In this section “relevant licence” means— (a) a licence granted by a district council in Wales under section 51 of the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1976; (b) a taxi driver’s licence or private hire car driver’s licence under section 13 of the Civic Government (Scotland) Act 1982.

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.
