The Hampshire and the Solent Combined County Authority Regulations 2026
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
10 Power to pay grant
(1) The functions of a Minister of the Crown specified in section 31 of the 2003 Act (power to pay grant) that are exercisable in relation to the Area are functions of the Combined County Authority. (2) The functions are exercisable by the Combined County Authority concurrently with a Minister of the Crown. (3) Paragraph (4) applies where, further to the exercise of any function referred to in paragraph (1), the Combined County Authority determines an amount of grant to be paid towards expenditure incurred or to be incurred by a constituent council in relation to the exercise of that council’s highway functions. (4) In determining the amount referred to in paragraph (3), the Combined County Authority must have regard to the desirability of ensuring that the constituent council has sufficient funds to facilitate the effective discharge of the functions referred to in paragraph (3). (5) To comply with paragraph (4), the Combined County Authority must take into account any other sources of funding available to the constituent council for expenditure incurred or to be incurred in relation to the exercise of its highway functions. (6) For the purposes of the exercise by the Combined County Authority of the functions specified in paragraph (1), section 31 of the 2003 Act has effect as if— (a) in subsection (1)— (i) the reference to a “Minister of the Crown” were a reference to the Combined County Authority; (ii) the reference to a “local authority in England” were a reference to a constituent council, (b) subsection (2) were omitted, and (c) subsection (6) were omitted. (7) In this regulation “highway functions” means functions exercisable by a constituent council (in whatever capacity) in relation to the highways for which it is the highway authority.

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.
