The Veterinary Medicines (Amendment etc.) Regulations 2024
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.

(4) Where the qualified person (manufacture) determines that a recalled veterinary medicinal product does not satisfy sub-paragraph (3)(a) or (b), or where it is not possible for the qualified person (manufacture) to determine whether the product does so, the product may not be re-sold. (5) The qualified person (manufacture) must record any assessment and determination made under sub-paragraphs (3) and (4).

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.
