Business Rate Supplements Act 2009
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
14 Chargeable amount: supplementary
(1) This section applies for the purposes of section 13. (2) “A” is— (a) the rateable value of the hereditament on the chargeable day, or (b) if section 12(2) applies, the rateable value of the occupied part of the hereditament on that day. (3) “B” is the multiplier for the BRS for the financial year (expressed to no more than three decimal places). (4) “C” is the number of days in the financial year. (5) “E” has the meaning it has for the purposes of Schedule 4ZA to the 1988 Act. (5A) “N” has the meaning it has for the purposes of Schedule 4ZB to the 1998 Act. (6) If a levying authority imposes only one BRS for a financial year, the multiplier for that BRS for that year must not exceed 0.02. (7) If a levying authority imposes more than one BRS for a financial year, the total of the multipliers for those BRSs for that year must not exceed 0.02. (8) Subject to subsections (6) and (7), the multiplier for a BRS for a financial year must not exceed— (a) the amount specified as the multiplier in the final prospectus, or (b) if the specified amount is varied in accordance with section 10, the amount as varied. (9) If section 45 ratepayers are subject to the BRS, subsection (10) applies in a case where— (a) part only of a hereditament is occupied, and (b) regulations under paragraph 1(2) of Schedule 4ZB to the 1988 Act are in force (and would apply to the hereditament if none of it were occupied). (10) Section 13 has effect as if for subsection (2) of this section there were substituted— (2) “A” is the sum of— (a) the rateable value of the occupied part of the hereditament on the chargeable day, and (b) the rateable value of the unoccupied part on that day, divided by the number prescribed as “N” by the order.

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.
