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
53D Payment of contractual compensation
(1) This regulation applies where a claim for contractual compensation is submitted to a shipowner’s security provider. (2) A shipowner’s security provider must pay the contractual compensation to the seafarer, or the seafarer’s personal representative, within 7 days beginning with the date on which it is established that the shipowner is liable for the contractual compensation either— (a) by agreement between— (i) the shipowner’s security provider; and (ii) the seafarer or the seafarer’s personal representative; or (b) by order of a court or tribunal which is not subject to appeal. (3) A shipowner’s security provider who fails to comply with paragraph (2) must pay to the seafarer, or the seafarer’s personal representative, interest on the unpaid amount at the rate of 20% per year beginning with the date that the shipowner’s security provider became satisfied of the shipowner’s liability. (4) In this regulation, “claim for contractual compensation” means a claim for compensation in the event of death or long term disability of a seafarer arising from occupational injury, illness or hazard where the compensation payable in respect of the claim is set out in the seafarer’s seafarer employment agreement, and “contractual compensation” is to be construed accordingly.

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.
