Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990
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.

41 Determination of appeals under s. 39.
(1) On an appeal under section 39 the Secretary of State may— (a) correct any defect, error or misdescription in the listed building enforcement notice; or (b) vary the terms of the listed building enforcement notice, if he is satisfied that the correction or variation will not cause injustice to the appellant or the local planning authority. (2) Where the Secretary of State determines to allow the appeal, he may quash the notice. (2A) The Secretary of State shall give any directions necessary to give effect to his determination on the appeal. (3) The Secretary of State— (a) may dismiss such an appeal if the appellant fails to comply with section 39(4) within the prescribed time; and (b) may allow such an appeal and quash the listed building enforcement notice if the local planning authority fail to comply within the prescribed period with any requirement imposed by regulations made by virtue of section 40(1)(a),(b) or (d). (4) If ... the Secretary of State proposes to dismiss an appeal under paragraph (a) of subsection (3) ... or to allow an appeal and quash the listed building enforcement notice under paragraph (b) of that subsection he need not comply with section 40(2). (5) Where it would otherwise be a ground for determining an appeal in favour of the appellant that a person required to be served with a copy of the listed building enforcement notice was not served, the Secretary of State may disregard that fact if neither the appellant nor that person has been substantially prejudiced by the failure to serve him. (6) On the determination of an appeal the Secretary of State may— (a) grant listed building consent for the works to which the listed building enforcement notice relates or for part only of those works; (b) discharge any condition or limitation subject to which listed building consent was granted and substitute any other condition, whether more or less onerous; (c) if he thinks fit, exercise his power under section 1 to amend any list compiled or approved under that section by removing from it the building to which the appeal relates. (7) Any listed building consent granted by the Secretary of State under subsection (6) shall be treated as granted on an application for the same consent under section 10 and the Secretary of State’s decision in relation to the grant shall be final. (8) Subsection (5) of section 250 of the Local Government Act 1972 (which authorises a Minister holding an inquiry under that section to make orders with respect to the costs of the parties) shall apply in relation to any proceedings ... before the Secretary of State on an appeal under section 39 as if those proceedings were an inquiry held by the Secretary of State under section 250.

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.
