The Fire Safety (Residential Evacuation Plans) (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
13 Building emergency evacuation plan
(1) The responsible person in relation to a specified residential building must— (a) prepare an evacuation plan for that building in the event of a fire (a “building emergency evacuation plan”), (b) provide a copy of the building emergency evacuation plan to the local fire and rescue authority, and (c) where the building has a secure information box, place a copy of the building emergency evacuation plan in that box. (2) The building emergency evacuation plan must include— (a) any instructions to residents relating to the evacuation strategy for the building required under regulation 9(2)(b)(i) of the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, (b) confirmation as to whether or not there are relevant residents, and (c) information relating to any other arrangements for evacuating the building. (3) The responsible person must review the building emergency evacuation plan— (a) no later than 12 months after the date on which the plan is first prepared, and (b) before the end of every period of 12 months thereafter. (4) The responsible person must also review the building emergency evacuation plan if there is reason to believe the plan requires amending. (5) Where the responsible person carries out a review under paragraph (4)— (a) before a review is due under paragraph (3)(a), the obligation to review arising under paragraph (3)(a) does not apply, and the obligation arising under that paragraph is to be calculated from the date of the review under paragraph (4); (b) before a review is due under paragraph (3)(b), any further obligation arising under paragraph (3)(b) is to be calculated from the date of the review under paragraph (4). (6) If, as a result of a review under paragraph (3) or (4), the plan is amended, the responsible person must, as soon as reasonably practicable— (a) provide a copy of the amended plan to the local fire and rescue authority, and (b) place a copy in the secure information box, where paragraph (1)(c) applies.

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.
