Petroleum Royalties (Relief) Act 1983
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.

1 Royalty exemption for petroleum from certain new offshore fields.

(3) In this section “petroleum” has the same meaning as in the Part I of the Petroleum Act 1998and, subject to subsection (4) below, “relevant new field” has the meaning given in section 36 of the Finance Act 1983 (increased oil allowance for certain new fields).

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.
