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
7 Requirement to undertake renewed investigation including physical inspection
(1) This regulation applies if— (a) since the lessor of the social home became aware of an issue of concern, an emergency or standard investigation of the relevant matter has been completed but no physical inspection of the relevant matter was undertaken as part of that investigation, (b) any preventative work identified by that investigation has not been begun, (c) regulations 5(4)(a)(ii) or (b) (emergency action: relevant safety work) and 8 (further investigation) do not apply. (2) If the lessee requests a physical inspection of the relevant matter, the lessor must secure that a renewed investigation of the relevant matter is completed by a competent investigator before the end of the period of 10 working days beginning on the day after the day on which the lessee makes that request. (3) The renewed investigation— (a) must determine whether the social home is affected by a significant hazard or emergency hazard, (b) must, if possible, determine what work (if any) is required work in relation to any such hazard, (c) must include a physical inspection of the relevant matter, (d) must, for the purposes of sub-paragraph (a), take into account any information provided by the lessee or any third party as to the impact of the relevant matter on, and the risk that the relevant matter poses to, the health or safety of an occupier of the social home, and (e) may consider any other relevant information. (4) In this regulation, “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 (whether or not that work is also necessary to make the social home safe).

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
