Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981
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
14H Appeals in connection with species control orders
(1) Any owner or occupier of premises to which a species control order relates may appeal to the sheriff if aggrieved by— (a) a decision of a relevant body to make the species control order; or (b) the terms of such an order. (2) An appeal under subsection (1) must be lodged not later than 28 days after the date on which the relevant body gave notice to the appellant of the decision being appealed. (3) The sheriff may suspend any effect of an emergency species control order pending the determination of an appeal. (4) The sheriff must determine an appeal under subsection (1) on the merits rather than by way of review and may do so by— (a) affirming the order in question; (b) directing the relevant body to amend the order in such manner as the sheriff may specify; (c) directing the relevant body to revoke the order; or (d) making such other order as the sheriff thinks fit. (5) A decision of the sheriff on appeal is final except on a point of law.

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.
