Football Governance Act 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
52 Duty to publish a personnel statement
(1) A licensed club must— (a) prepare a personnel statement (within the meaning of section 16), and (b) submit it to the IFR for approval. (2) A statement submitted to the IFR for approval must be accompanied by a statement explaining why the club considers the statement to be accurate (but this is subject to subsection (8)). (3) The IFR— (a) may approve the statement with or without modifications, and (b) may approve the statement only if satisfied that it is accurate. (4) Before approving the statement with modifications, the IFR must consult the club. (5) The club must publish the approved statement online as soon as reasonably practicable after the IFR approves the statement. (6) The first statement must be submitted to the IFR as soon as reasonably practicable after the club becomes a licensed club, subject to subsection (8). (7) A new statement must be submitted to the IFR as soon as reasonably practicable after the most recent approved statement becomes inaccurate in a material particular. (8) Where the first personnel statement submitted by a club to the IFR in accordance with subsection (6) would be the same as the personnel statement submitted by the club to the IFR under section 16, the club may require the IFR to treat the statement submitted under that section as its first personnel statement for the purposes of this section.

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.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
