Wireless Telegraphy Act 2006
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
43 Amount of penalty under section 42
(1) The amount of a penalty imposed under section 42 for a relevant multiplex contravention (see subsection (7) of that section) is to be such amount as OFCOM think fit. (2) But the amount of the penalty may not exceed the greater of— (a) £250,000; and (b) 5 per cent. of the relevant amount of gross revenue. (2A) The amount of a penalty imposed under section 42 for a contravention that is not a relevant multiplex contravention is to be such amount not exceeding 10 per cent of the relevant amount of gross revenue as OFCOM think— (a) appropriate; and (b) proportionate to the contravention in respect of which it is imposed. (3) In this section “the relevant amount of gross revenue” means the amount specified in section 44. (4) The Secretary of State may by order amend this section so as to substitute a different amount for the amount for the time being specified in subsection (2)(a). (5) No order is to be made containing provision authorised by subsection (4) unless a draft of the order has been laid before Parliament and approved by a resolution of each House.

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.
