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.

As published
58A Executive ministerial functions
(1) Executive ministerial functions, so far as exercisable within devolved competence, are exercisable by the Welsh Ministers.
(2) Executive ministerial functions that are ancillary to a function of the Welsh Ministers exercised outside devolved competence are also exercisable by the Welsh Ministers.
(3) Functions exercisable by the Welsh Ministers under subsection (1) or (2) are not exercisable by a Minister of the Crown unless they are functions to which subsection (4) applies.
If they are functions to which subsection (4) applies, they are exercisable by the Welsh Ministers concurrently with any relevant Minister of the Crown.
(4) This subsection applies to—
(a) functions ancillary to a function of the Welsh Ministers that is exercisable concurrently or jointly with a Minister of the Crown;
(b) functions ancillary to a function of a Minister of the Crown;
(c) functions that are not ancillary to another function;
(d) functions in relation to observing and implementing assimilated obligations.
(5) In this section—
“executive ministerial function” means a function of Her Majesty of a kind that is exercisable on Her behalf by a Minister of the Crown (including a function involving expenditure or other financial matters), but not a function conferred or imposed by or by virtue of any legislation or the prerogative;
“within devolved competence” and “outside devolved competence” are to be read in accordance with subsections (7) and (8).
(6) For the purposes of this section a function is “ancillary to” another function if or to the extent that it is exercisable with a view to facilitating, or in a way that is conducive or incidental to, the exercise of the other function.
(7) It is outside devolved competence—
(a) to make any provision by subordinate legislation that would be outside the legislative competence of the Senedd if it were included in an Act of the Senedd (see section 108A), or
(b) to confirm or approve any subordinate legislation containing such provision.
(8) In the case of a function other than a function of making, confirming or approving subordinate legislation, it is outside devolved competence to exercise the function (or to exercise it in a particular way) if or to the extent that a provision of an Act of the Senedd conferring the function (or conferring it so as to be exercisable in that way) would be outside the legislative competence of the Senedd.

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.
