Business and Planning Act 2020
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
14 Temporary reduction in duration of certain driving licences
(1) In relation to a licence that— (a) falls within subsection (2), and (b) is granted in the period beginning with 17 April 2020 and ending with 24 March 2022, section 99(1A)(a)(ii) of the Road Traffic Act 1988 (duration of driving licences) has effect as if the reference to the period for which the licence is to remain in force were a reference to one year. (2) A licence falls within this subsection if it is a licence to drive a class of goods vehicle or passenger-carrying vehicle that is— (a) the first licence to drive that class of vehicle granted after 16 April 2020 to the applicant, and (b) granted without the Secretary of State requiring the applicant to submit a report signed by a qualified medical practitioner in support of the application. (3) But a licence does not fall within subsection (2) if in the 12 month period ending with the date the application is made for the licence— (a) the applicant was granted a licence to drive a motor vehicle under Part 3 of the Road Traffic Act 1988, and (b) a report signed by a qualified medical practitioner was submitted in support of the application for the licence mentioned in paragraph (a).

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.
