The Hazards in Social Housing (Prescribed Requirements) (England) Regulations 2025
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
12 Requirement to keep safe
(1) This regulation applies where relevant safety work in relation to a significant hazard or emergency hazard affecting a social home has been completed. (2) Where a relevant investigation concludes that a further investigation is necessary to determine whether any supplementary preventative work is required in relation to the hazard, the lessor must secure that the social home is kept safe until the further investigation is completed. (3) Where a relevant investigation identifies relevant supplementary preventative work in relation to the hazard, the lessor must secure that the social home is kept safe until that work is completed, subject to paragraph (4). (4) The requirement in paragraph (3) ceases to apply from such time that any of the following events occur— (a) where the relevant supplementary preventative work cannot be undertaken lawfully unless the lessor obtains the consent of another person, the lessor has exhausted all reasonable endeavours to obtain such consent, (b) a subsequent associated investigation concludes that the social home is not affected by a significant hazard or emergency hazard, or (c) a subsequent associated investigation concludes that there is no relevant supplementary preventative work in relation to the hazard in question. (5) In this regulation— “keep safe” means, in relation to a social home where relevant safety work has been completed, to keep the social home in the condition it is in on completion of that work; “relevant supplementary preventative work” means, in relation to a significant hazard or emergency hazard, any required work that— is necessary to ensure, so far as is possible, that the hazard in question does not recur, is not necessary to make the social home safe, and is not cladding work.

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.
