Items that do make the list are up for discussion. The evidence backs that up.

"might want to discuss" is in the FUTURE. The response to a particular item might well be "not happening" or simply "sub-item A=yes, sub-item B=no, sub-item C=possible with changes". Absolutely nothing decided or agreed upon.
Certain quarters are always complaining when proposals put forward at a Labour party conference that have been put forward
and agreed, are being used to say "Labour will do X". A key difference is that there no two-sided negotiation and agreement is involved, it's just one-sided imposition by a Labour government.
UK Governments produce "Green" and "White" papers on propositions. They are not intended to be the final version, they are up for discussion.

Green Papers are consultation documents produced by the Government. The aim of this document is to allow people both inside and outside Parliament to give the department feedback on its policy or legislative proposals.

White papers are policy documents produced by the Government that set out their proposals for future legislation. White Papers are often published as Command Papers and may include a draft version of a Bill that is being planned. This provides a basis for further consultation and discussion with interested or affected groups and allows final changes to be made before a Bill is formally presented to Parliament.
