Adoption and Children Act 2002
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
60 Disclosing information to adopted adult
(1) This section applies to an adopted person who has attained the age of 18 years. (2) The adopted person has the right, at his request, to receive from the appropriate adoption agency— (a) any information which would enable him to obtain a certified copy of the record of his birth, unless the High Court or family court orders otherwise, (b) any prescribed information disclosed to the adopters by the agency by virtue of section 54. (3) The High Court or family court may make an order under subsection (2)(a), on an application by the appropriate adoption agency, if satisfied that the circumstances are exceptional. (4) The adopted person also has the right, at his request, to receive from the court which made the adoption order a copy of any prescribed document or prescribed order relating to the adoption. (5) Subsection (4) does not apply to a document or order so far as it contains information which is protected information.

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.
