Energy Prices Act 2022
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
13 Power of the Secretary of State to give support for meeting energy costs etc
(1) The Secretary of State may take such steps as the Secretary of State considers appropriate to— (a) provide support for meeting costs related to the use of energy; (b) enable or encourage the efficient use of energy; (c) provide support for meeting costs related to the supply of energy; (d) enable or encourage the supply of energy. (2) The Secretary of State may take such other steps as the Secretary of State considers appropriate in response to the energy crisis. (3) The steps that may be taken under the powers conferred by subsections (1) and (2) include— (a) giving financial assistance (whether directly or indirectly and whether subject to conditions or not); (b) acquiring, making available or otherwise enabling access to energy or relevant infrastructure (including by entering into contracts); (c) steps in respect of particular descriptions of households, persons or premises; (d) dealing with any costs or matters incidental to the exercise of those powers (whether those costs or matters fall to the Secretary of State or another). (4) In subsection (3)(b) “relevant infrastructure” means infrastructure related to the supply or use of energy. (5) Steps of a kind— (a) described in subsection (1) or (2), and (b) taken by the Secretary of State on or after 1 January 2022 but before the coming into force of this section, are, to the extent that they are not authorised by a power of the Secretary of State arising under any other legislation, authorised by subsection (1) or (2) (as appropriate). (6) Nothing in this section limits a power of the Secretary of State arising under any other legislation or otherwise. (7) For provision about time limits on the exercise of the powers conferred by this section, see Schedule 6.

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.
