The Oil and Gas Authority (Levy and Fees) Regulations 2024
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.

(2) The OGA must, by 31st December 2025, credit to each licensee the difference between— (a) the sum of the amount paid by or on behalf of that licensee in accordance with the payment notice and any interest paid by or on behalf of that licensee in accordance with regulation 7, and (b) the recalculated amount of levy payable by that licensee. (3) Any payment notice in respect of which sums remain outstanding is to be construed as referring to the recalculated amount of levy payable by the relevant licensee, and regulation 7 is to be construed accordingly. (4) In this regulation— “leviable costs” means the sum of the costs incurred by the OGA and the Lord Chancellor in exercising the functions referred to in section 13(2)(a) of the Energy Act 2016, excluding any costs incurred in exercising the functions referred to in section 13(2)(b) of that Act, in respect of the relevant charging period; “recalculated amount of levy payable” means the sum of— the amount of levy payable by a licensee in accordance with the payment notice, and any amount of interest which became payable by that licensee in accordance with regulation 7, multiplied by the relevant multiplier; “relevant multiplier” means the figure calculated by dividing the leviable costs by the total amount of levy, expressed to three decimal places.

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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
