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
97 Members seconded to NATO or the UN etc
(1) This regulation applies if an active member is seconded during any period— (a) to the United Nations or the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation; or (b) under arrangements with any other organisation or person under which persons who are in service as a result of which they are eligible to belong to the scheme are seconded into other service. (2) If at the end of that period the member resumes service in the armed forces in which he is an active member of the scheme, the member may opt to make a single lump sum contribution to the scheme so as to preserve the earned pension benefits to which the member would have been entitled but only for the secondment. (3) The option is to be exercised by notice in writing to the scheme administrator in such form as the scheme manager requires. (4) If a member exercises the option under paragraph (2) and pays to the scheme administrator a contribution equal to the aggregate amount of— (a) any contributions returned to the member by the pension arrangement to which the member belonged in respect of his service during the secondment; and (b) any lump sum paid to the member on leaving the organisation or to the person to whom he was seconded as a severance payment, the member is entitled to count the amount as being equal to their earned pension benefits to which the member would have been entitled but only for the secondment. (5) If the aggregate amount mentioned in paragraph (4) is less than the amount determined by the scheme manager after consultation with the scheme actuary to be the amount required to be paid in order to preserve the earned pension benefits under paragraph (2), the Secretary of State must make a contribution to the scheme equal to the difference. (6) This regulation is subject to regulation 97A.

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.
