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.

(1) Regulations may make provision for regulating the conduct, when acting as such, of— (a) persons licensed to act as drivers of public service vehicles, and (b) inspectors and conductors of such vehicles; and (c) drivers, inspectors and conductors of tramcars. (1A) Regulations under subsection (1)(b) may, in particular, make provision about whether or not a person authorised to act as an inspector by a relevant authority may act in that capacity in relation to a relevant local service— (a) at times when the public service vehicle used to provide the service is outside the area of the authority (including when the vehicle is in Wales or Scotland); (b) which does not have a stopping place in the area of the authority. (2) Subject to section 68(1) of this Act, if a person to whom regulations having effect by virtue of this section apply contravenes, or fails to comply with, any of the provisions of the regulations, he shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 2 on the standard scale and, in the case of an offence by a person acting as driver of a public service vehicle, the court by which he is convicted may, if it thinks fit, send notice of the particulars of the conviction to the Secretary of State requiring the Secretary of State to endorse them on the person's driving record (within the meaning of section 97A of the Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988).

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.
