Energy Act 2004
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
169 Licence conditions to secure funding of energy administration
(1) The modifications that may be made under section 168 include, in particular, modifications imposing conditions requiring the holder of the licence— (a) so to modify the charges imposed by him for anything done by him in the carrying on of the licensed activities as to raise such amounts as may be determined by or under the conditions; and (b) to pay the amounts so raised to such persons as may be so determined for the purpose of— (i) their applying those amounts in making good any shortfall in the property available for meeting the expenses of an energy administration; or (ii) enabling those persons to secure that those amounts are so applied. (2) Those modifications may include modifications imposing on the licence holder an obligation to apply amounts paid to him in pursuance of conditions falling within subsection (1)(a) or (b) in making good any such shortfall. (3) For the purposes of this section— (a) there is a shortfall in the property available for meeting the costs of an energy administration if, in a case where a company is or has been subject to an energy administration order, the property available (apart from conditions falling within subsection (1) or (2)) for meeting relevant debts is insufficient for meeting them; and (b) amounts are applied in making good that shortfall if they are paid in or towards discharging so much of a relevant debt as cannot be met out of the property otherwise available for meeting relevant debts. (4) In this section “relevant debt”, in relation to a case in which a company is or has been subject to an energy administration order, means an obligation— (a) to make payments in respect of the expenses or remuneration of any person as the energy administrator of that company; (b) to make a payment in discharge of a debt or liability of that company arising out of a contract entered into at a time when the order was in force by the person who at that time was the energy administrator of that company; (c) to repay the whole or a part of a grant made to that company under section 165; (d) to repay a loan made to the company under that section, or to pay interest on such a loan; (e) to make a payment under section 166(4); or (f) to make a payment under section 167(5).

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.
