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.

8 Sufficient relevant training or education
(1) For the purposes of this Part, relevant training or education is “sufficient” in relation to any relevant period if it amounts in aggregate to—
(a) at least 280 hours of guided learning, in the case of a relevant period which is one year;
(b) such number of hours of guided learning as is determined in accordance with regulations, in the case of any other relevant period.
(2) For the purposes of this Part, a person participates in a particular number of hours of guided learning by—
(a) participating in actual guided learning for that number of hours, or
(b) completing a course or courses which can reasonably be expected to be adequate to enable persons completing it or them to achieve any standard required to attain a form of a regulated qualification to which that number of hours of guided learning has been assigned.
(3) In subsection (2)—
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
“actual guided learning”, in relation to a person, means time the person spends—
being taught or given instruction by a lecturer, tutor, supervisor or other appropriate provider of training or education, or
otherwise participating in education or training under the immediate guidance or supervision of such a person,
but does not include time spent on unsupervised preparation or study, whether at home or otherwise;
“assigned” means assigned by a recognised body in accordance with section 145 of the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Act 2009;
“regulated qualification” has the same meaning as in Part 7 of the Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Act 2009 (see section 130 of that Act).
(4) Regulations may make provision for attributing to any relevant period a number of hours of guided learning in which a person participates (or is treated by the regulations as participating) by virtue of subsection (2)(b) in cases where courses do not begin and end during a single relevant period.

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.
