Petroleum Act 1998
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.

19 Vesting of pipelines on termination or subsequent issue of authorisations.
(1) When an authorisation ceases to be in force the controlled pipeline to which it relates shall, by virtue of this subsection, be transferred to and vest in the OGA free from encumbrances, except that nothing in this subsection prejudices— (a) any interest belonging to the Crown Estate or to Her Majesty in right of the Duchy of Lancaster or to the Duchy of Cornwall; or (b) any right conferred by a notice relating to the pipeline under section 17 or section 17F(9) of this Act or section 82(11) of the Energy Act 2011 . (2) Where the OGA proposes to issue an authorisation to any person in respect of a pipeline vested in the OGA by virtue of subsection (1) the OGA may agree with that person, on terms which may include provision for that person to make payments to the OGA, that the authorisation is to include a statement that subsection (3) applies to the authorisation. (3) Where an authorisation includes such a statement the pipeline to which the authorisation relates shall, by virtue of this subsection and at the time specified in the authorisation, be transferred to and vest in the holder of the authorisation subject to any interest or right then subsisting in respect of the pipeline by virtue of paragraph (a) or (b) of subsection (1).

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.
