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
1A Certain appeals against penalties under the 2011 Regulations
(1) This section applies where— (a) the Secretary of State has made a decision imposing on a claimant for jobseeker’s allowance a penalty for failing to comply with the 2011 Regulations (“the penalty decision”), and (b) the claimant lodged an appeal against the penalty decision before 26 March 2013, and the appeal had not been finally determined, abandoned or withdrawn before 26 March 2013. (2) If the Secretary of State revises the penalty decision under section 9 of the Social Security Act 1998, in making the revised decision, the Secretary of State must disregard subsections (1) to (6) of section 1 of this Act and subsection (12) of section 1 so far as it relates to those subsections. (3) Subsection (4) applies where a tribunal has decided the appeal before this section comes into force. (4) In a case where the tribunal decided to uphold the penalty decision (in whole or in part), the Secretary of State must make a decision superseding the tribunal’s decision. (5) In making a superseding decision under subsection (4), the Secretary of State must disregard subsections (1) to (6) of section 1 and subsection (12) of section 1 so far as it relates to those subsections. (6) Section 10(1)(b) of the Social Security Act 1998 (power of the Secretary of State to supersede a tribunal decision) does not apply in a case where subsection (4) applies. (7) A superseding decision made under subsection (4) is to be treated for all purposes as if it were a superseding decision made under section 10 of the Social Security Act 1998. (8) Subsection (9) applies where, after this section has come into force, a court or tribunal is considering— (a) the appeal mentioned in subsection (1)(b), (b) an appeal against a revised decision made under section 9 of the Social Security Act 1998 by virtue of subsection (2), or (c) an appeal against a superseding decision made under subsection (4). (9) In considering the appeal, the court or tribunal must disregard subsections (1) to (6) of section 1 and subsection (12) of section 1 so far as it relates to those subsections. (10) A revised decision made by virtue of subsection (2) and a superseding decision made under subsection (4) are to be treated as having effect from the date on which the penalty decision had effect (other than for the purposes of any rule as to the time allowed for bringing an appeal). (11) In this section— “the 2011 Regulations” has the same meaning as in section 1; “court” means the Court of Appeal, the Court of Session or the Supreme Court; “tribunal” means the First-tier Tribunal or the Upper Tribunal.

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.
