Administration of Estates Act 1925
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.

9 Vesting of estate in Public Trustee where intestacy or lack of executors.
(1) Where a person dies intestate, his real and personal estate shall vest in the Public Trustee until the grant of administration. (2) Where a testator dies and— (a) at the time of his death there is no executor with power to obtain probate of the will, or (b) at any time before probate of the will is granted there ceases to be any executor with power to obtain probate, the real and personal estate of which he disposes by the will shall vest in the Public Trustee until the grant of representation. (3) The vesting of real or personal estate in the Public Trustee by virtue of this section does not confer on him any beneficial interest in, or impose on him any duty, obligation or liability in respect of, the property.

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.
