Child Support (Enforcement) Act 2023
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.

2 Making of liability order
In section 32M of the 1991 Act (as inserted by section 25 of the 2008 Act) (liability orders), for subsection (1) substitute— (1) Where it appears to the Secretary of State that— (a) a person has failed to pay an amount of child support maintenance, and (b) either— (i) it is inappropriate to make a deduction from earnings order against the person (because, for example, the person is not employed), or (ii) although a deduction from earnings order has been made against the person, it has proved ineffective as a means of securing that payments are made in accordance with the maintenance calculation in question, the Secretary of State may make an order in respect of that amount against the person.

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.
