Banking Act 1987 (repealed)
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
15 Surrender of authorisation.
(1) An authorised institution may surrender its authorisation by written notice to the Authority. (2) A surrender shall take effect on the giving of the notice or, if a later date is specified in it, on that date; and where a later date is specified in the notice the institution may by a further written notice to the Authority substitute an earlier date, not being earlier than that on which the first notice was given. (3) The surrender of an authorisation shall be irrevocable unless it is expressed to take effect on a later date and before that date the Authority by notice in writing to the institution allows it to be withdrawn. (4) Where the Authority receives a notice of surrender under subsection (1) above from a credit institution incorporated in or formed under the law of any part of the United Kingdom, it shall give a copy of that notice to every other authority which the Authority knows is— (a) a connected UK authority; or (b) a supervisory authority in another member State in which the institution is carrying on a listed activity.

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.
