Plant Varieties Act 1997
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
5 Rights in relation to application period.
(1) If an application for plant breeders’ rights is granted, the holder of the rights shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for anything done during the application period which, if done after the grant of the rights, would constitute an infringement of them. (2) In subsection (1) above, “application period”, in relation to a grant of plant breeders’ rights, means the period— (a) beginning with the day on which details of the application for the grant of the rights are published in the gazette, and (b) ending with the grant of the rights.

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.
