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
28 Power to direct a local traffic authority
(1) The Secretary of State may direct a local traffic authority to make an order or issue a notice by virtue of section 26 if— (a) the Secretary of State is satisfied that the making of the order, or issue of the notice, is necessary for a purpose specified in section 26(1), (b) the Secretary of State has requested that the authority take the action to be directed, and (c) the authority have failed to take the action before the end of the period of 7 days beginning with the day on which the Secretary of State made the request.

(3) Subsections (1)(b) and (c) and (2) do not apply if the Secretary of State is satisfied that, for reasons of urgency, the direction must be given without delay.

(5) An order made or notice issued by the Secretary of State under subsection (4)(a) is to be treated as though it were an order made or notice issued by the local traffic authority by virtue of section 26. (6) An authority directed under section 25(1) may not be directed under this section to exercise any power conferred on that authority by section 27(1).

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.
