Ports (Finance) Act 1985
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
5 Provisions supplemental to ss. 3 and 4.
(1) In sections 3 and 4 above and this section— “existing local provision” means a provision of a local Act (including an Act confirming a provisional order) or a provision of an instrument made under any such local Act or of an instrument in the nature of a local enactment made under any other Act, being a provision in force on the date on which this section comes into force; and “relevant harbour authority” means a harbour authority constituted by or under an existing local provision for the purpose of managing a harbour (within the meaning of the Harbours Act 1964). (2) Where a Minister of the Crown considers it necessary or appropriate to do so in consequence of section 3 or 4 above he may by order— (a) repeal or revoke any existing local provision which in his opinion has ceased to have effect; or (b) make such amendments in any such provision as he thinks fit. (3) An order under this section may contain such transitional, supplemental or incidental provisions as the Minister thinks appropriate. (4) The power to make an order under this section shall be exercisable by statutory instrument subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of either House of Parliament.

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.
