Supply and Appropriation (Anticipation and Adjustments) Act 2026
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
5 Appropriation of excesses for 2024-25
(1) For the purpose of appropriating the amount of resources the use of which for the year ending with 31 March 2025 is authorised by section 4 (1), the Main Estimates Act 2024 is treated as having effect with the adjustments provided for in Schedule 2 to this Act. (2) Schedule 2 specifies the amounts by which adjustments are to be treated as made to the amounts specified in the Scheduled Estimates in the Main Estimates Act 2024 and to the amounts treated as so specified. (3) For the purpose of making the adjustments in Schedule 2 an adjustment has effect to increase an amount of authorised expenditure and, where applied to an estimated surplus, reduces it. (4) Accordingly, where an adjustment of more than the amount itself is made to the amount of an estimated surplus, what results is an amount of authorised expenditure. (5) Where, in relation to a department, other person or service to which a Scheduled Estimate in the Main Estimates Act 2024 relates, Schedule 2 contains a new description of matters to which expenditure may relate or from which income may arise, Schedule 2 has effect for adjusting that Scheduled Estimate by treating the new description as included in it. (6) In this section— “estimated surplus” has the same meaning as in the Main Estimates Act 2024; “Main Estimates Act 2024” means the Supply and Appropriation (Main Estimates) Act 2024 as it is treated as having effect in consequence of the adjustments made by virtue of the Supply and Appropriation (Anticipation and Adjustments) Act 2025. (7) The adjustments made by virtue of this section are to be treated as having had effect from the beginning of 1 April 2024.

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.
