Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984
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
45O Enforcement of Part 2A orders
(1) A person commits an offence if the person— (a) fails without reasonable excuse to comply with a restriction or requirement imposed by or under a Part 2A order, or (b) wilfully obstructs anyone acting in the execution of a Part 2A order. (2) A person guilty of an offence under subsection (1) is liable on summary conviction to a fine. (3) If— (a) a person is convicted of an offence under subsection (1), and (b) the court by which the person is convicted is satisfied that the failure or wilful obstruction constituting the offence has caused premises or things to become infected or contaminated or otherwise damaged them in a material way, the court may, if it considers it appropriate to do so, order the person to take or pay for such remedial action as may be specified in the order. (4) Subsection (5) applies if— (a) a Part 2A order imposes a requirement that a person be detained or kept in isolation or quarantine in a place, and (b) the person leaves that place contrary to the requirement. (5) A constable may take the person into custody and return the person to that place. (6) But a person may not be taken into custody under subsection (5) after expiry of the period for which the requirement is in force.

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.
