Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups 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
39 Local authorities: power to refer
(1) A local authority may provide DBS with any ... information they hold relating to a person if the first and second conditions are satisfied. (2) The first condition is that the local authority thinks— (a) that paragraph 1, 2, 7 or 8 of Schedule 3 applies to the person, (b) that the person has engaged in relevant conduct (within the meaning of paragraph 4 or 10 of Schedule 3) occurring after the commencement of this section, or (c) that the harm test is satisfied. (3) The harm test is that the person may— (a) harm a child or vulnerable adult, (b) cause a child or vulnerable adult to be harmed, (c) put a child or vulnerable adult at risk of harm, (d) attempt to harm a child or vulnerable adult, or (e) incite another to harm a child or vulnerable adult. (4) The second condition is that the local authority thinks— (a) that the person is or has been, or might in future be, engaged in regulated activity ..., and (b) (except in a case where paragraph 1 or 7 of Schedule 3 applies) that DBS may consider it appropriate for the person to be included in a barred list. (5) A local authority may provide DBS with any ... information it holds relating to a person if— (a) the local authority think that a person has engaged in relevant conduct (within the meaning of paragraph 4 or 10 of Schedule 3) occurring before the commencement of this section, and (b) the condition in subsection (4) is satisfied. (6) For the purposes of subsection (2)(b) or (5)(a), conduct is inappropriate if it appears to the local authority to be inappropriate having regard to the guidance issued by the Secretary of State under paragraph 4(6) or 10(6) of Schedule 3.

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.
