Parliamentary Standards Act 2009
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
4A Determination of MPs' salaries
(1) This section is about determinations under section 4(4). (2) A determination may provide for higher salaries to be payable to members while holding an office or position specified for the purposes of this subsection in a resolution of the House of Commons. (3) A determination by virtue of subsection (2) may make different provision for different offices or positions or different classes of member (and may include exceptions). (4) A determination may include a formula or other mechanism for adjusting salaries from time to time. (5) A determination (other than the first determination) may have retrospective effect. (6) The IPSA must review the current determination (and make a new determination as appropriate)— (a) in the first year of each Parliament; (b) at any other time it considers appropriate. (7) In reviewing a determination (and before making the first determination) the IPSA must consult— (a) the Review Body on Senior Salaries, (b) persons appearing to the IPSA to represent persons likely to be affected by the determination or the review, (c) the Minister for the Civil Service, (d) the Treasury, and (e) any other person the IPSA considers appropriate. (8) After making a determination, the IPSA must publish in a way it considers appropriate— (a) the determination, and (b) a statement of how it arrived at the determination. (9) If the IPSA reviews the current determination but decides not to make a new determination, it must publish in a way it considers appropriate a statement of how it arrived at that decision. (10) The IPSA may delegate to the Review Body on Senior Salaries its function of reviewing a determination (but not its function of deciding whether or not to make a new determination).

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.
