Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999
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
38 Treatment in winding up.
(1) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . (2) In the case of an occupational pension scheme which is not a scheme to which this section applies, rights attributable (directly or indirectly) to a pension credit are to be accorded in a winding up the same treatment— (a) if they have come into payment, as the rights of a pensioner member, and (b) if they have not come into payment, as the rights of a deferred member. (2A) This section applies to an occupational pension scheme other than— (a) a money purchase scheme, or (b) a prescribed scheme or a scheme of a prescribed description. (3) Subsection (2) overrides the provisions of a scheme to the extent that it conflicts with them, and the scheme has effect with such modifications as may be required in consequence. (4) In subsection (2)— (a) “deferred member” and “pensioner member” have the same meanings as in Part I of the Pensions Act 1995, (b) “pension credit” includes a credit under Northern Ireland legislation corresponding to section 29(1)(b), and (c) references to rights attributable to a pension credit having come into payment are to the person to whom the rights belong having become entitled by virtue of the rights to the present payment of pension or other benefits.

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.
