(2) If this section applies— (a) the social enterprise, and (b) any person connected with the social enterprise who has knowledge of the matters mentioned in subsection (1), must give a notice to an officer of Revenue and Customs containing particulars of the event.

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.
