Debt Relief (Developing Countries) Act 2010
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
4 Meaning of “the relevant proportion”
(1) In this Act any reference to the relevant proportion, in relation to a qualifying debt, is to be read as follows. (2) Where the qualifying debt is one to which the Initiative applies, the relevant proportion is— A B where— A is the amount the debt would be if it were reduced in accordance with the Initiative (on the assumption, if it is not the case, that completion point has been reached, for the purposes of the Initiative, in respect of the country whose debt it is), and B is the amount of the debt without it having been so reduced. (3) Where the qualifying debt is a debt of a potentially eligible Initiative country, the relevant proportion is 33%.

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.
