Social Security Administration (Northern Ireland) Act 1992
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
As published
103BA Power of Department to require electronic access to information
(1) Subject to subsection (2) below, where it appears to the Department-
(a) that a person falling within section 103B(2A) above keeps any electronic records,

the Department may require that person to enter into arrangements under which authorised officers are allowed such access to those records.

(a) shall be entitled to obtain information in accordance with arrangements entered into under subsection (1) above only if his authorisation states that his authorisation applies for the purposes of that subsection; and

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.
