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.

(3A) For the purposes of subsection (3) above, where—
(a) the question or matter referred to the Commission concerns the review of a price control imposed on the company holding the appointment; and
(b) the Commission is to decide to what extent it is reasonable to take into account in its determination costs incurred or borne by the company in connection with the reference,

and subsections (5) and (6) of section 15 below apply to such a report as they apply to a report on a reference under section 14.
(3) Subsections (3)(b)(i), (4) and (5) shall cease to have effect.

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.
