Tax Credits Act 2002
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
29 Recovery of overpayments
(1) Where an amount is liable to be repaid or paid by a person or persons under section 28, the Board must give him, or each of them, a notice specifying the amount. (2) The notice must state which of subsections (3) to (5) is to apply in relation to the amount or any specified part of the amount; and a notice may at any time be replaced by another notice containing a different statement. (3) Where a notice states that this subsection applies in relation to an amount (or part of an amount), it is to be treated for the purposes of Part 6 of the Taxes Management Act 1970 (c. 9) (collection and recovery) as if it were tax charged in an assessment and due and payable by the person or persons to whom the notice was given at the end of the period of thirty days beginning with the day on which the notice is given. (4) Where a notice states that this subsection applies in relation to an amount (or part of an amount), it may be recovered— (a) subject to provision made by regulations, by deduction from payments of any tax credit under an award made for any period to the person, or either or both of the persons, to whom the notice was given; (b) by the Secretary of State— (i) by deductions under section 71ZC of the Administration Act (deduction from benefit); (ii) by deductions under section 71ZD of that Act (deduction from earnings); or (iii) as set out in section 71ZE of that Act (court action etc); or (c) by the relevant Northern Ireland Department— (i) by deductions under section 69ZC of the Administration (Northern Ireland) Act (deduction from benefit); (ii) by deductions under section 69ZD of that Act (deduction from earnings); or (iii) as set out in section 69ZE of that Act (court action etc). (5) Where a notice states that this subsection applies in relation to an amount (or part of an amount), PAYE regulations apply to it as if it were an underpayment of income tax for a previous year of assessment by the person or persons to whom the notice was given that is not a relevant debt (within the meaning of section 684 of the Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003).

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.
