Water Resources Act 1991
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
141 Precepts for recovery of contributions from internal drainage boards.
(1) The appropriate agency may issue precepts to internal drainage boards requiring payment of any amount required to be contributed by those boards under section 139 above. (2) An internal drainage board shall pay, in accordance with any precept issued to them under this section, the amount thereby demanded. (3) It shall be the duty of the appropriate agency to prepare, in such form as the relevant Minister may direct, a statement of— (a) the purposes to which the amount demanded by any precept issued by the appropriate agency under this section is intended to be applied; and (b) the basis on which it is calculated; and an internal drainage board shall not be liable to pay the amount demanded by any such precept until they have received such a statement. (4) Compliance with any precept issued by the appropriate agency in accordance with this section may be enforced by mandamus. (5) In this section “the relevant Minister” has the same meaning as in section 140 above.

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.
