Local Government Finance Act 1988
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
63M Penalties
(1) The Welsh Ministers may by regulations make provision for the imposition of a financial penalty where— (a) a person has been given a notice under section 63K(1) or (2) and it has not been withdrawn, (b) the time limit for requesting a review under section 63K(4) has expired and, if a review has been requested, the time limit for appealing under section 63L has expired, and (c) the person has failed to pay an amount due to a billing authority or the Welsh Ministers in consequence of having made an artificial non-domestic rating avoidance arrangement.

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.
