Extradition Act 2003
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
197 Custody
(1) If a judge remands a person in custody under this Act, the person must be committed to the institution to which he would have been committed if charged with an offence before the judge.This is subject to the power to order the temporary transfer of a person under section 21B. (2) If a person in custody following his arrest under Part 1 or Part 2 , or kept in custody by virtue of a power under Part 3, escapes from custody, he may be retaken in any part of the United Kingdom in the same way as he could have been if he had been in custody following his arrest or apprehension under a relevant domestic warrant. (3) A relevant domestic warrant is a warrant for his arrest or apprehension issued in the part of the United Kingdom in question in respect of an offence committed there. (4) Subsection (5) applies if— (a) a person is in custody in one part of the United Kingdom (whether under this Act or otherwise); (b) he is required to be removed to another part of the United Kingdom after being remanded in custody under this Act; (c) he is so removed by sea or air. (5) The person must be treated as continuing in legal custody until he reaches the place to which he is required to be removed.

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.
