Subsidy Control Act 2022
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
22 Liquidating deposit takers or insurance companies
(1) A subsidy to an ailing or insolvent deposit taker or insurance company within subsection (2) is prohibited by this section unless the conditions in subsections (3) to (5) are met. (2) A deposit taker or insurance company is within this subsection if it cannot be credibly demonstrated that it is capable of being returned to long-term viability. (3) The condition in this subsection is that the subsidy is given to the deposit taker or insurance company for the purpose of ensuring its orderly liquidation and exit from the market. (4) The condition in this subsection is that the public authority giving the subsidy is satisfied that— (a) the subsidy is limited to what is needed for the purpose mentioned in subsection (3), and (b) the subsidy is limited so as to minimise its negative effect on— (i) competition or investment within the United Kingdom, (ii) trade between the United Kingdom and countries and territories outside the United Kingdom, and (iii) investment as between the United Kingdom and countries and territories outside the United Kingdom. (5) The condition in this subsection is that the beneficiary of the subsidy, its shareholders, its creditors or the business group to which the beneficiary belongs— (a) have contributed significantly to the liquidation costs from their own resources, or (b) have a contractual obligation to do so.

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.
