The Pensions Act 2011 (Transitional, Consequential and Supplementary Provisions) 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
52 Schemes continuing as closed schemes after an assessment period
(1) This regulation applies where— (a) an assessment period in relation to an occupational pension scheme began before the appointed day; and (b) the scheme is authorised (whether before, on or after the appointed day) to continue as a closed scheme under section 153(5) of the 2004 Act (closed schemes). (2) Subject to paragraph (5), where the conditions specified in paragraph (3) are met, the trustees or managers of the scheme may determine that benefits specified in paragraph (4) which were treated by the trustees or managers of the scheme as if they were money purchase benefits should continue to be treated as money purchase benefits. (3) The conditions specified in this paragraph are that— (a) the scheme provides any of the benefits specified in paragraph (4); and (b) the trustees or managers of the scheme, immediately before the assessment period began, treated those benefits as if they were money purchase benefits. (4) The benefits specified in this paragraph are— (a) cash balance benefits; (b) a defined benefit minimum (in relation to money purchase underpin benefits or cash balance underpin benefits); (c) top-up benefits; and (d) pensions derived from any of the benefits specified in sub-paragraphs (a) to (c) or from money purchase benefits. (5) Where the Board has made a determination or a direction under any of the relevant Pension Protection Fund provisions or these Regulations that benefits specified in paragraph (4) should or should not be treated as money purchase benefits— (a) paragraph (2) does not apply; and (b) the trustees or managers of the scheme must treat those benefits in accordance with the direction or determination of the Board.

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.
