The Capital Buffers and Macro-prudential Measures Regulations 2025
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
5 Countercyclical capital buffer rate
(1) The FPC must assess and set a buffer rate for the United Kingdom in accordance with this regulation. (2) The buffer rate must be assessed and set for the purpose of enabling UK institutions to calculate their institution-specific countercyclical capital buffers. (3) The buffer rate must be assessed and set at least on a quarterly basis, taking into account any variables that the FPC considers relevant for addressing cyclical systemic risk. (4) The buffer rate must be expressed as a percentage of the total risk exposure of UK institutions. (5) Total risk exposure must be calculated in accordance with Article 92 (own funds requirements) of the Capital Requirements Regulation. (6) The buffer rate must be— (a) set between 0% and 2.5%, except where the matters referred to in paragraph (3) justify a higher rate, and (b) an integer multiple of 0.25%.

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.
