Railways Act 2005
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
59 Consequential amendments, transitional provisions and repeals
(1) Schedule 12 (which contains consequential and minor amendments) has effect. (2) The Secretary of State may make a scheme making such modifications of the provisions of any licence or licence exemption granted under section 7(3) of the 1993 Act as appear to him to be necessary or expedient in consequence of any provision falling within subsection (3) by virtue of which— (a) functions are transferred (with or without modifications) from one person to another; or (b) functions corresponding (with or without modifications) to functions previously conferred on one person become functions of another. (3) Those provisions are— (a) section 1 and Schedule 1; (b) section 2 and Schedule 3; (c) section 21 and Schedule 6; and (d) section 48. (4) A scheme under subsection (2) may include provision for things done by or in relation to a person who previously had a function to be treated as done by or in relation to the person on whom that function, or the corresponding function, is conferred by virtue of this Act. (5) Where a scheme under subsection (2) makes a modification of the provisions of a licence or licence exemption, the Secretary of State must— (a) in the case of a modification of the provisions of a licence, notify the licence holder; and (b) in the case of a modification of the provisions of a licence exemption granted under section 7(3) of the 1993 Act, give such notice as he considers appropriate for bringing the modification to the attention of persons likely to be affected by it. (5A) Subsections (2) to (5) have effect in relation to a railway undertaking licence and a holder of a railway undertaking licence as they have effect in relation to a licence and a licence holder respectively. (6) The provisions in Part 1 of Schedule 13 (which include some that are spent) are repealed to the extent shown in the second column of that Part. (7) Those repeals have effect subject to the savings in Part 2 of that Schedule.

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.
