The Armed Forces Pension Regulations 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
79 Lump sum amount payable on death of active member
(1) In the case of a deceased active member, the amount of the lump sum payable under regulation 78 (death of a member: lump sum benefit) is equal to the member’s final pensionable earnings, multiplied by 4. This is subject to paragraphs (2), (2A) and (2B). (2) If the member was both an active member and a deferred member, and the aggregate of the amount payable under regulation 80 (lump sum amount payable on death of deferred member) and any amount payable by way of a lump sum on the death of the member as a deferred member of a connected scheme is greater than the amount payable under paragraph (1), the amount payable under regulation 80 is payable instead of the amount specified in paragraph (1). (2A) If the member was both an active member and a pensioner member and the amount payable under regulation 81 (lump sum amount payable on death of pensioner member) is greater than the amount payable under paragraph (1), the amount payable under regulation 81 is payable instead of the amount specified in paragraph (1). (2B) If the member was both an active member and a deferred member or a pensioner member of a connected scheme, the amount specified in paragraph (1) is only payable if and to the extent that it exceeds the aggregate of any payments made to or in respect of the member by way of lump sum on the death of the member under any connected scheme. (3) For the purpose of this regulation, any amounts paid or payable to or in respect of the member in the capacity of a pension credit member are to be disregarded.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
