Water Resources Act 1991
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
186 Interpretation of Part VII.
(1) In this Part— “discharge pipe” means a pipe from which discharges are or are to be made under section 163 above; “relevant transferred functions” means any functions which— were exercisable by the Agency before 1 April 2013, and are functions of the NRBW by virtue of the Natural Resources Body for Wales (Functions) Order 2013, but this is subject to subsection (1A). “resource main” means any pipe, not being a trunk main within the meaning of the Water Industry Act 1991, which is or is to be used for the purpose of— (a) conveying water from one source of supply to another, from a source of supply to a regulating reservoir or from a regulating reservoir to a source of supply; or (b) giving or taking a supply of water in bulk. (1A) For the purposes of the definition of “relevant transferred functions”— (a) a function of the Agency was exercisable before 1 April 2013 whether or not the enactment conferring it had come into force before that date, but (b) a function is only a relevant transferred function when the enactment conferring the Agency function transferred to or conferred on the NRBW has come into force. (2) In subsection (1) above— “source of supply” shall be construed without reference to the definition of that expression in section 221 below; and “supply of water in bulk” has the same meaning as in section 3 above. (3) The powers conferred by Chapter I of this Part shall be without prejudice to the powers conferred on the Agency or on the NRBW by any other enactment or by any agreement.

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.
