The Armed Forces Early Departure Payments Scheme Regulations 2014
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
15 Effect of emergencies
(1) This regulation applies where a person who would be entitled to payment under regulation 9 (entitlement to early departure payments), if that person had ceased to be in service on the relevant date, does not cease to be in service on that date by reason only of— (a) circumstances which in the opinion of the scheme manager amount to an emergency, or (b) that person being a prisoner of war on that date. (2) The person is treated for the purposes of regulations 8 (eligibility for early departure payments) to 11(option to convert the entire lump sum payment into additional monthly payments) as having ceased to be in service on the relevant date. (3) In this regulation “the relevant date” means— (a) in the case of a person who was to have ceased to be in the regular forces on the date that the person’s commitment ended, that date, or (b) in the case of a person who agreed to continue in the regular forces after that person’s commitment ended until normal pension age for a member under the AFPS 14, the day before the person reached that age, or (c) in the case of a person not within sub-paragraphs (a) or (b) who was notified that a particular date was to be the last day of that person’s service in the regular forces, that date.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
