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.

(2) The amendments made by subsection (1) have effect in relation to options granted on or after 6th April 2007.
(3) They also have effect in relation to a qualifying option within subsection (4), for the purpose of determining at any time on or after that date whether an activity is an excluded activity.

(a) it had not been exercised, and
(b) no disqualifying event had occurred in relation to it.
(5) Subsection (6) applies in respect of an option within subsection (4) if—
(a) immediately before 6th April 2007—

(6) The activity is to be treated, in relation to the option, as not being an excluded activity at that time.

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.
