116A Health and social care: joint local health and wellbeing strategies
(1) This section applies where a responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards receive an integrated care strategy under section 116ZB(7)(b).
(2) The responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards must prepare a strategy (“a joint local health and wellbeing strategy”) setting out how the assessed needs in relation to the responsible local authority’s area are to be met by the exercise of functions of—
(a) the responsible local authority,
(b) its partner integrated care boards, or
(c) NHS England.
(2A) But the responsible local authority and its partner integrated care boards need not prepare a new joint local health and wellbeing strategy if, having considered the integrated care strategy, they consider that the existing joint local health and wellbeing strategy is sufficient.
(3) In preparing a strategy under this section, the responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards must, in particular, consider the extent to which the assessed needs could be met more effectively by the making of arrangements under section 75 of the National Health Service Act 2006 (rather than in any other way).
(4) In preparing a strategy under this section, the responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards must have regard to—
(za) the integrated care strategy prepared under section 116ZB,
(a) the mandate published by the Secretary of State under section 13A of the National Health Service Act 2006, and
(b) any guidance issued by the Secretary of State.
(5) In preparing a strategy under this section, the responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards must—
(a) involve the Local Healthwatch organisation for the area of the responsible local authority, and
(b) involve the people who live or work in that area.
(6) The responsible local authority must publish each strategy prepared by it under this section.
(7) The responsible local authority and each of its partner integrated care boards may include in the strategy a statement of their views on how arrangements for the provision of health-related services in the area of the local authority could be more closely integrated with arrangements for the provision of health services and social care services in that area.
(8) In this section and section 116B—
(a) “partner integrated care board”, in relation to a responsible local authority, has the same meaning as in section 116,
(aa) “assessed needs”, in relation to the area of a local authority, means the needs assessed in relation to its area under section 116, and
(b) “health services”, “health-related services” and “social care services” have the same meaning as in section 195 of the Health and Social Care Act 2012.

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.
