Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction 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
142 Determination of payments due
(1) In the Housing Grants, Construction and Regeneration Act 1996, section 110 (dates for payment) is amended as follows. (2) After subsection (1) insert— (1A) The requirement in subsection (1)(a) to provide an adequate mechanism for determining what payments become due under the contract, or when, is not satisfied where a construction contract makes payment conditional on— (a) the performance of obligations under another contract, or (b) a decision by any person as to whether obligations under another contract have been performed. (1B) In subsection (1A)(a) and (b) the references to obligations do not include obligations to make payments (but see section 113). (1C) Subsection (1A) does not apply where— (a) the construction contract is an agreement between the parties for the carrying out of construction operations by another person, whether under sub-contract or otherwise, and (b) the obligations referred to in that subsection are obligations on that other person to carry out those operations. (3) After subsection (1C) (as inserted by subsection (2) above) insert— (1D) The requirement in subsection (1)(a) to provide an adequate mechanism for determining when payments become due under the contract is not satisfied where a construction contract provides for the date on which a payment becomes due to be determined by reference to the giving to the person to whom the payment is due of a notice which relates to what payments are due under the contract.

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.
