Finance 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
9 Extension of reduced standard rate and anti-avoidance provision

(2) Schedule 3 contains— (a) provision for a supplementary charge to value added tax on supplies spanning the date of the VAT change (see Parts 1 to 5), and (b) minor amendments of provisions about orders changing the standard rate of value added tax (see Part 6).

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.
