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
185 Savings in respect of existing drainage obligations.
(1) Nothing in the flood defence provisions of this Act shall operate to release any person from an obligation to which section 21 of the Land Drainage Act 1991 applies. (2) The functions of the appropriate agency as respects the doing of any work under the flood defence provisions of this Act are not to be treated as in any way limited by the fact that some other person is under an obligation, by reason of tenure, custom, prescription or otherwise, to do that work.

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.
