International Development (Reporting and Transparency) Act 2006
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
SCHEDULE Information to be included in annual report
Section 2 1 An annual report must include the following information for the most recent relevant period, and for each of the four relevant periods immediately before the most recent one— (a) the amount of bilateral aid provided by the United Kingdom, (b) the amount of multilateral aid provided by the United Kingdom, (c) the amount of debt relief included in each of the amounts mentioned in sub-paragraphs (a) and (b), (d) the amount of cancelled export credits included in the amount mentioned in sub-paragraph (c), (e) the amount of bilateral official development assistance provided by the United Kingdom, (f) the amount of multilateral official development assistance provided by the United Kingdom, (g) the amount of the United Kingdom's imputed share of the aggregate amount of multilateral official development assistance provided by the bodies to which the United Kingdom contributed such assistance, (h) the total of the amounts mentioned in sub-paragraphs (e) and (f), and that total as a percentage of the gross national income of the United Kingdom, (i) what percentage of the amount mentioned in sub-paragraph (a) was provided to low income countries, and how much that amounted to. 2 (1) The amount mentioned in paragraph 1(a) for each relevant period is also to be broken down— (a) by region, (b) by country, and (c) by sector. (2) An annual report must also state, in relation to the amount shown for each country pursuant to sub-paragraph (1)(b) of this paragraph, the amount of humanitarian assistance which is included in each full amount. 3 The amount mentioned in paragraph 1(b) for each relevant period is also to be broken down at least by reference to aid provided through the following (but may be further broken down)— (a) the European Community, (b) the World Bank Group, (c) the United Nations and its agencies, (d) other multilateral organisations. 4 (1) The amount mentioned in paragraph 1(e) for each relevant period is also to be broken down by country.

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.
