Gas Act 1965
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
10 Exclusion of double compensation.
(1) A right to store gas in an underground gas storage acquired by a public gas transporter by agreement or compulsorily shall not include a right, as against any other person, to prevent the carrying out of any controlled operations, or of any operations which would be controlled operations but for the provisions of section 18(7)(a) of this Act; and compensation for any compulsory acquisition of such a right under Schedule 3 to the principal Act shall be assessed accordingly. (2) In assessing compensation— (a) under section 7 of this Act, or (b) on a claim for compensation for the compulsory acquisition by a public gas transporter of an interest in or right over any land which involves a claim for the injurious affection of any land, the effect of sections 5 and 6 of this Act shall be disregarded. (3) The appropriate tribunal in assessing compensation for the depreciation of an interest in land— (a) on a claim for compensation under section 7 of this Act, or (b) on a claim for compensation for compulsory acquisition by a public gas transporter of an interest in or right over any land which involves compensation for depreciation, shall make such adjustments as will in the opinion of the appropriate tribunal prevent compensation being paid more than once for the same cause on two or more claims falling within paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subsection, or on one or more such claims when taken with the consideration paid by the public gas transporter for the acquisition by agreement of any interest in land. (4) The appropriate tribunal in assessing compensation under section 8 or section 9 of this Act shall make such adjustments as will in the opinion of the appropriate tribunal prevent compensation being paid more than once in respect of the same cause, whether it gives rise to a claim for the depreciation of an interest in land, for abortive expenditure or for other loss or damage.

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.
