The Merchant Shipping (Maritime Labour Convention) (Minimum Requirements for Seafarers etc.) Regulations 2014
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
22 Duty pending repatriation
(1) A shipowner to which a duty in regulation 19 applies must make such provision as is necessary for the seafarer's relief and maintenance pending repatriation. (2) The shipowner must have regard to the seafarer's personal circumstances and requirements when determining what provision is required under paragraph (1). (3) Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (1) the provision for relief and maintenance must include— (a) food; (b) clothing; (c) accommodation; (d) toiletries and other personal necessaries; (e) surgical, medical, dental or optical treatment (including the repair or replacement of any appliance) for any condition requiring immediate care; and (f) in cases where legal aid is unavailable or insufficient, reasonable costs for the defence of the seafarer in any criminal proceedings in respect of any act or omission within the scope of the seafarer's employment, being proceedings where neither the shipowner nor an agent of the shipowner is the complainant. (4) The duty in paragraph (1) ends when the duty in regulation 19 ends. (5) A breach of paragraph (1) is an offence by the shipowner.

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.
