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
5 Domestic energy price reduction schemes for Northern Ireland
(1) The Secretary of State may establish a domestic electricity price reduction scheme for Northern Ireland. (2) A “domestic electricity price reduction scheme for Northern Ireland” is a scheme (including any other related arrangements) that makes provision for and in connection with— (a) reducing the amount that would otherwise be charged for NI domestic electricity supply by licensed electricity suppliers who are parties to the scheme, and (b) making payments to those suppliers in respect of those reductions in charges. (3) The Secretary of State may establish a domestic gas price reduction scheme for Northern Ireland. (4) A “domestic gas price reduction scheme for Northern Ireland” is a scheme (including any other related arrangements) that makes provision for and in connection with— (a) reducing the amount that would otherwise be charged for NI domestic gas supply by licensed gas suppliers who are parties to the scheme, and (b) making payments to those suppliers in respect of those reductions in charges. (5) The Secretary of State may modify or revoke a domestic electricity or gas price reduction scheme for Northern Ireland. (6) But if the scheme includes provision about modification or revocation of the scheme, the Secretary of State’s power to modify or revoke it is subject to that provision. (7) Any such provision of the scheme does not prevent the Secretary of State from modifying the scheme if— (a) the Secretary of State considers that a licensed electricity supplier or licensed gas supplier may make, or has made, arrangements whose primary purpose is to increase payments to the supplier under the scheme, and (b) the purpose of the modification of the scheme is to prevent the increased payments or require repayment of increased payments. (8) 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.
