Crown Agents Act 1995
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
9 Functions with respect to vesting of foreign property, &c. in successor company.
(1) It shall be the duty of the Crown Agents and of the successor company to take, as and when during the transitional period the successor company considers appropriate, all such steps as may be requisite to secure that the vesting in the successor company by virtue of this Act of any foreign property, right or liability is effective under the relevant foreign law. (2) Until the vesting in the successor company by virtue of this Act of any foreign property, right or liability is effective under the relevant foreign law, it shall be the duty of the Crown Agents during the transitional period to hold that property or right for the benefit of, or to discharge that liability on behalf of, the successor company. (3) Nothing in subsections (1) and (2) shall be taken as prejudicing the effect under the law of the United Kingdom, or of any part of the United Kingdom, of the vesting in the successor company by virtue of this Act of any foreign property, right or liability. (4) The Crown Agents shall have all such powers as may be requisite for the performance of their duties under this section; but— (a) it shall be the duty of the successor company during the transitional period to act on behalf of the Crown Agents (so far as possible) in performing the duties imposed on the Crown Agents by this section, and (b) any foreign property, rights and liabilities acquired or incurred by the Crown Agents during that period shall immediately become property, rights and liabilities of the successor company. (5) References in this section to any foreign property, right or liability are to any property, right or liability as respects which any issue arising in any proceedings would have been determined (in accordance with the rules of private international law) by reference to the law of a country or territory outside the United Kingdom.

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.
