The Public Sector Fraud and Error (Recovery) Regulations 2026
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.

9 Duties of banks
(1) Where a bank is required to give information to the Minister under an account information notice, a general information notice or a further information notice (“relevant information”), the bank must provide the relevant information within the period of 10 working days beginning with the day on which the notice is given to the bank. (2) Where a bank is required to give the Minister the name and correspondence address that it holds for a deputy under section 37 (5) of the Act, the bank must give the Minister that information within the period of 10 working days beginning with the day on which the notice or order referred to in section 37 (4) of the Act is given to the bank. (3) If a bank is unable to provide the information mentioned in paragraph (1) or (2) within the period specified in the relevant paragraph— (a) the bank must notify the Minister of that inability and the reason for the inability within a reasonable period of time; (b) the Minister may grant an extension of time to comply with the obligation.

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.
