New Towns Act 1981
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
2 Reduction of designated areas.
(1) The Secretary of State may make an order excluding any land specified in the order from the area of a new town if, after consulting— (a) the development corporation for the town, and (b) any county council and district council or, in the case of land in Wales, any county council or county borough council in whose area the land is situated, he is satisfied that it is expedient to make the order. (2) Subject to subsections (3) and (4) below, on the coming into force of an order under subsection (1) above— (a) the land specified in the order shall cease to be contained in the area of the new town; and (b) the order made under section 1 above designating the area shall cease to operate as regards that land. (3) The Secretary of State may in an order under this section make such provision by way of savings and transitional provisions (including provisions amending provisions made by or under an enactment) as he thinks fit, and subsection (2) above applies subject to any such savings and transitional provisions.

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.
