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
86 Power to require accounts etc for past years to be audited by qualified auditor
(1) The FCA may give a direction under this section to a registered society in respect of any relevant year.
(2) A “relevant year”, in relation to a society, is any year of account before the current year of account for which—
(a) the society was a small society and made an appointment under section 83(2)(b) (appointment of non-qualified auditors), or
(b) section 83 did not apply to the society because of a resolution under section 84 (power to disapply auditing requirements).
(3) If a direction is given—
(a) the society must appoint one or more qualified auditors to audit its accounts and balance sheet for the relevant year, and
(b) if the society sent its annual return for the relevant year to the FCA before the date of the direction, the society must (after audit, and within 3 months from receipt of the direction) send to the FCA a further annual return complying with the requirements of this Part (other than as to the time it is given).

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.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
