Police Pensions Act 1976
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
3 Application of regulations to former members.
(1) Subject to the following provisions of this section, any regulations made under section 1 above may be framed— (a) so as to apply in relation to the pensions which are being paid or may become payable under the regulations to or in respect of persons who, having served as members of police forces, have ceased so to serve or died before the regulations come into force; or (b) so as to require or authorise the payment of pensions to or in respect of such person. (2) No provision shall be made by regulations under section 1 above by virtue of subsection (1) above unless any person who is placed in a worse position than he would have been in if the provision had not applied in relation to any pension which is being paid or may become payable to him is by the regulations given an opportunity to elect that the provision shall not so apply. (3) No provision with respect to the forfeiture of pensions included in regulations made under section 1 above shall apply in relation to pensions granted under any of the enactments, rules and regulations specified in paragraph 3 of Schedule 1 to this Act; and that Schedule shall have effect— (a) for the purpose of excluding entirely certain pensions to or in respect of former members of police forces from the operation of regulations made under section 1; and (b) with respect to the forfeiture of pensions so granted and appeals against forfeiture in certain cases.

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.
