(2) Regulations under subsection (1) may make any provision that could be made by an Act of Parliament (including modifying this Act). (3) Regulations under subsection (1) may (among other things) make provision facilitating the access to the market within Great Britain of qualifying Northern Ireland goods. (4) Such provision may (among other things) include provision about the recognition within Great Britain of technical regulations, assessments, registrations, certificates, approvals and authorisations issued by— (a) the authorities of a member State, or (b) bodies established in a member State, in respect of qualifying Northern Ireland goods. (5) Regulations under subsection (1) may (among other things) restate, for the purposes of making the law clearer or more accessible, anything that forms part of domestic law by virtue of section 7A and the Protocol. (6) A Minister of the Crown may by regulations define “qualifying Northern Ireland goods” for the purposes of this Act. (7) In this section any reference to the Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland includes a reference to— (a) any other provision of the withdrawal agreement so far as applying to the Protocol, and (b) any provision of EU law which is applied by, or referred to in, the Protocol (to the extent of the application or reference), but does not include the second sentence of Article 11(1) of the Protocol (which provides that the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland may continue to make new arrangements that build on the provisions of the Belfast Agreement in other areas of North-South cooperation on the island of Ireland).

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.
