State Pension Credit Act 2002
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 Transitional provisions
(1) The Secretary of State may by regulations make such transitional provision, consequential provision or savings as he considers necessary or expedient for the purposes of, or in connection with,— (a) the coming into force of any of the state pension credit provisions of this Act; or (b) the operation of any enactment repealed or amended by any of those provisions during any period when the repeal or amendment is not wholly in force. (2) The provision that may be made by regulations under this section includes in particular— (a) provision for a person who attains or has attained the qualifying age on or before the appointed day and who immediately before that day is entitled to income support— (i) to be treated as having been awarded on, and with effect as from, that day state pension credit of an amount specified in or determined in accordance with the regulations; or (ii) to be treated as having made a claim for state pension credit; and (b) provision for an assessed income period under section 6 of such length as may be specified in or determined in accordance with the regulations (which may be longer than the maximum period provided for by section 9(1)) to have effect in the case of a person who attains or has attained the qualifying age on or before the appointed day. (3) In this section— “the appointed day” means such day as the Secretary of State may by order appoint; “the state pension credit provisions of this Act” means this Act other than section 18.

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.
