Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007
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
14 Application to partnerships
(1) For the purposes of this Act a partnership is to be treated as owing whatever duties of care it would owe if it were a body corporate. (2) Proceedings for an offence under this Act alleged to have been committed by a partnership are to be brought in the name of the partnership (and not in that of any of its members). (3) A fine imposed on a partnership on its conviction of an offence under this Act is to be paid out of the funds of the partnership. (4) This section does not apply to a partnership that is a legal person under the law by which it is governed.

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.
