(1) The Lord Chancellor may by order modify, or make other provision relating to, the functions of an approved regulator or any other body (other than the Board).
(2) The Lord Chancellor may make an order under subsection (1) only if—
(a) the Board has made a recommendation under this section,
(b) a draft order was annexed to the recommendation, and
(c) the order is in the same form as, or a form not materially different from, that draft order.
(3) The Board may make a recommendation under this section only with a view to an order being made which enables the body to which it relates to do one or more of the following—
(a) to become designated by an order under Part 2 of Schedule 4 as an approved regulator, or designated by an order under Part 1 of Schedule 10 as a licensing authority, in relation to one or more reserved legal activities;
(b) to authorise persons or any category of persons (whether corporate or unincorporate) to carry on one or more activities which are reserved legal activities in relation to which the body is (at the time the authorisation has effect) designated as an approved regulator, or to make regulatory arrangements;
(c) to carry out its role as an approved regulator (including its role, if any, as a licensing authority) more effectively or efficiently;

(e) if it is a designated qualifying regulator under section 86A of the Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 (c. 33), to authorise persons to provide any additional advice or services the provision of which amounts to the provision of immigration advice or immigration services.

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.
