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.

(2) The Treasury may by regulations make provision about relief under this section, including provision—

(c) about cases where two or more carbon prices are payable in relation to the same emissions;
(d) for the amount of relief to differ depending on where the carbon price is payable;
(e) specifying periods by reference to which calculations or measurements are to be made.

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.
