Hydrocarbon Oil Duties Act 1979
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
6AE Excise duty on blends of bioethanol and hydrocarbon oil
(1) A duty of excise shall be charged on bioethanol blend— (a) imported into the United Kingdom, or (b) produced in the United Kingdom and delivered for home use from a refinery or other premises used for the production of hydrocarbon oil or from any bonded storage for hydrocarbon oil, not being bioethanol blend chargeable with duty under paragraph (a) above. (2) In this Act “bioethanol blend” means any mixture that is produced by mixing— (a) bioethanol, and (b) hydrocarbon oil not charged with excise duty. (3) The rate at which the duty shall be charged on any bioethanol blend is the same as that in the case of unleaded petrol. (4) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

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.
