Building Act 1984
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
51 Final certificates.
(1) Where a registered building control approver is satisfied that any work to which an initial notice given by them relates has been completed, they shall give to the local authority by whom the initial notice was accepted such certificate with respect to the completion of the work and the discharge of their functions as may be prescribed (called a “final certificate”). (2) Section 50(5) to (7) above has effect in relation to a final certificate as if any reference in those subsections to a plans certificate were a reference to a final certificate. (3) Where a final certificate— (a) has been given with respect to any of the work to which an initial notice relates, and (b) has been accepted by the local authority concerned, the initial notice ceases to apply to that work, but section 48(1) above continues to apply, by virtue of this subsection, in relation to that work as if the initial notice continued in force in relation to it.

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.
