The Single Source Contract Regulations 2014
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.

(1) This regulation applies where the Secretary of State proposes to enter into two or more qualifying defence contracts with the same primary contractor (“the prospective contractor”) within the period of one year (“the relevant year”). (2) The prospective contractor and the Secretary of State may agree an amount which may be used as the cost risk adjustment (regulation 11(3)) for any qualifying defence contract entered into between the prospective contractor and the Secretary of State within the relevant year, so as to reflect the financial risks to the primary contractor of entering into the contracts mentioned in paragraph (1), taking into account the particular type of activities to be carried out by the primary contractor under those contracts. (3) An amount agreed under paragraph (2) must be within a range of plus or minus 25% of the baseline profit rate. (4) The prospective contractor and the Secretary of State may agree an amount which may be used as the deduction from costs associated with group profits (regulation 13A)) for any qualifying defence contract entered into between the prospective contractor and the Secretary of State within the relevant year, so as to ensure that profit arises only once in relation to those allowable costs under any such qualifying defence contract that relate to the price payable under any group-sub-contract (including any further group sub-contract). (5) The prospective contractor and the Secretary of State may agree an amount which may be used as the capital servicing adjustment (regulation 11(7)) for any qualifying defence contract entered into between the prospective contractor and the Secretary of State within the relevant year, so as to ensure that the primary contractor receives an appropriate and reasonable return on the fixed and working capital employed by the primary contractor for the purposes of enabling the primary contractor to perform any such qualifying defence contract. (6) In agreeing a capital servicing adjustment under paragraph (5), the prospective contractor and the Secretary of State must— (a) have regard to the capital servicing rates in force at the date that the amount is agreed; (b) not apply any adjustment in respect of any costs of fixed and working capital which are expected to be included as allowable costs under any qualifying defence contracts to which the amounts agreed under this regulation will apply; and (c) use an average fixed and working capital for any business unit which is likely to be performing the primary contractor's obligations under any such qualifying defence contracts.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
