(3) The rights and liabilities that may be transferred by a scheme include those arising under or in connection with a contract of employment.

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.
