Employment Tribunals Act 1996
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.

(3) Subsection (2)(b)(i) applies irrespective of when the order was made or the amount of the costs sum was determined. (4) “Settlement sum” means a sum payable by an employer to a worker under the terms of a settlement in respect of which a certificate has been issued under section 19A(1). (5) “Relevant sum” means— (a) a financial award, or (b) a settlement sum. (6) “Relevant appeal”, in relation to a financial award, means an appeal against— (a) the decision on the claim to which it relates, (b) a decision to make, or not to make, an order in respect of a financial award (including any costs sum) on the claim, (c) the amount of any such award, or (d) any decision made on an appeal within paragraphs (a) to (c) or this paragraph.

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.
