Co-operative and Community Benefit Societies Act 2014
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
As published
101 Meaning of society being a “subsidiary” of another society
(1) For the purposes of this Part, a registered society (S) is a “subsidiary” of another registered society (P) if—
(a) P is a member of S and controls the composition of its committee, or
(b) P can exercise a majority of the votes to which S's members are entitled under its rules.
(2) For this purpose P is regarded as controlling the composition of S's committee if—
(a) P can appoint and remove all or a majority of the committee's members, by exercising a power that is exercisable by it without the consent or concurrence of any other person, or
(b) P is a member of the committee and, by exercising such a power, can appoint and remove the remaining members or such number of members as, together with itself, would constitute a majority.
(3) For the purposes of subsection (2) P is treated as having power to appoint a person to membership of S's committee if—
(a) the person can be appointed only if P exercises a power of a kind mentioned in subsection (2)(a) in favour of the person, or
(b) the person's appointment follows necessarily from the person's appointment as a member of P's committee.
(4) Section 100(4) applies (with necessary modifications) for the purposes of this section as it applies for the purposes of section 100.

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.
