Housing and Regeneration Act 2008
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
234 Enforcement
(1) A penalty shall be treated as a debt owed to the regulator. (2) The Treasury may make regulations authorising the regulator— (a) to charge interest on penalty not paid during the period specified under section 228(2)(d); (b) to impose one or more additional penalties where a penalty is not paid during that period. (3) Interest and additional penalty shall be treated as penalty (and may have the effect of increasing the penalty above a limit set by section 229). (4) Regulations under subsection (2)(a) may provide for an interest rate to be— (a) set by a specified person, or (b) determined in accordance with the regulations. (5) A penalty notice may include provision allowing a discount if the penalty is paid on or before a date specified in the notice (falling within the period specified under section 228(2)(d)). (6) A person to whom a penalty notice is given on the ground in Case 6 of section 227 may not be prosecuted for the offence by reference to which the penalty notice was given.

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.
