Hill Farming Act 1946
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
21 Avoidance or relaxation of covenants against heather and grass burning in England and Wales.
(1) Where a lease of land in England or Wales contains a covenant, condition or agreement whereby the burning of heather or grass by the tenant is prohibited or restricted, the appropriate tribunal, on an application by the tenant, may if it appears to them that the covenant, condition or agreement is preventing or impeding the proper use for agricultural purposes of the land comprised in the lease or any of that land and that it is expedient in all the circumstances so to do, give such directions for avoiding or relaxing the covenant, condition or agreement as they think fit. (1A) Where the land lies partly in Wales and partly in England, for the purposes of anything required or authorised to be done under this section by or before an appropriate tribunal in relation to that land, the land shall be deemed to be situated entirely in the place where the greater part of the land lies. (1B) For the purposes of this section, “appropriate tribunal” means— (a) in England, the First-tier Tribunal; and (b) in Wales, the Agricultural Land Tribunal. (2) This section applies to leases made before or after the commencement of this Act and shall have effect notwithstanding any stipulation to the contrary. (3) In this section the expressions “landlord”, “tenant” and “lease” have the meanings assigned to them respectively by the Landlord and Tenant Act, 1927.

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.
