Childcare Act 2006
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
7A Discharge of duty under section 7
(1) Regulations may require an English local authority to discharge its duty to a young child under section 7 by making arrangements which secure that an early years provider chosen by a parent of the child provides the early years provision to which the child is entitled in cases where— (a) the early years provider is willing to provide it, and (b) the early years provider is also willing to accept— (i) any terms as to the payments which would be made to him or her in respect of the provision, and (ii) any requirements which would be imposed in respect of it. (2) Arrangements made by an authority to satisfy any requirement imposed under subsection (1) may be made with an early years provider or with an early years childminder agency or any other person who is able to arrange for an early years provider to provide early years provision. (3) The regulations may provide that such a requirement— (a) applies only if the early years provider is of a prescribed description; (b) applies only if the early years provision provided by the early years provider is of a prescribed description; (c) does not apply in prescribed circumstances. (4) The regulations may provide that arrangements made by an authority for the purpose of complying with such a requirement must include provision allowing the local authority to terminate the arrangements in prescribed circumstances. (5) In this section— “early years childminder agency” and “early years provider” have the same meanings as in Part 3; “parent” has the same meaning as in section 2.

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.
