The Infected Blood Compensation Scheme Regulations 2025
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.

14 Applications for infected core payments
(1) An application for an infected core payment must be made by— (a) the end of 31st March 2031, or (b) if later, the end of the period of 6 years beginning with the day on which the person to whom the application relates (“P”) was diagnosed with an infection specified in regulation 3(3). (2) An application for an infected core payment must be accompanied by evidence which establishes— (a) the diagnosis of the infection specified in regulation 3(3), (b) which of paragraph (2), (6), (7) or (8) of regulation 3 applies as to the cause or origin of the infection, (c) where P is infected with HIV, the date on which their diagnosis of that infection was given, (ca) if P is deceased on the date of the application, the date of P’s death, and (d) where P is infected with Hepatitis B or Hepatitis C (or both), the severity of the infection on the relevant date. (3) Where— (a) P is, or immediately before they died was, an infected SSP recipient, and (b) the application only seeks to establish that P is an eligible infected person by virtue of an infection in respect of which support scheme payments are, or immediately before P died were, being made, the application need not be accompanied by the evidence described in paragraph (2)(a) or (b). (4) Where the relevant person intends to make an election to assign some or all of any assignable care award in accordance with regulation 75(9), the application must— (a) include notice that the relevant person intends to make such an election (a “care award assignment notice”), (b) include information identifying one or more prospective eligible affected persons (each a “notified care award assignee”) to whom the relevant person intends to assign some or all of the assignable care award, and (c) be accompanied by evidence that each notified care award assignee provided care to P. (5) In these Regulations, “assignable care award” means— (a) where P is not an infected SSP recipient, the care (core) award which may be determined in relation to P; (b) where P is an infected SSP recipient, the past amount of the care (core) award which may be determined in relation to P. (6) For the purposes of paragraph (4)(b), a “prospective eligible affected person” means a person (“Q”) in respect of whom it is intended that an affected core application will be made establishing that Q is an eligible affected person in relation to P. (7) No additional infected core application may be made in relation to P if the IBCA has determined, pursuant to a previous infected core application, that P is an eligible infected person.

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.
