The Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 (Specification for Imitation Firearms) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 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.
Change 1
3 Specifications for certain imitation firearms brought into Northern Ireland
(1) Blank-firing imitation firearms brought into Northern Ireland, other than those described in paragraph (2), must conform to the specifications set out in paragraph (3). (2) The blank-firing imitation firearms described in this paragraph are— (a) imitation revolvers, and (b) imitation firearms where the blank cartridges are loaded vertically at 90 degrees to the dummy barrel and which fire, and vent the gases produced on discharge, in the same direction. (3) The specifications referred to in paragraph (1) are that— (a) an imitation firearm must incorporate an inclusion, (b) the inclusion must be wholly made of a material which is at least as resistant to being cut, drilled, bored, ground (or any similar process) as sintered tungsten carbide in the range 1550-2000 HV 30, (c) the inclusion must wholly block the barrel and should be permanent and incapable of being knocked out without destroying the chamber or barrel, (d) part of the inclusion must be incorporated into the rear of the dummy barrel, and (e) the inclusion must be intended to prevent— (i) the creation of a hole through the dummy barrel along its axis, and (ii) the removal of a dummy barrel, unless the frame and chamber area of the firearm is rendered useless as a result or its integrity so compromised that it cannot be used to form the basis of a firearm without significant repair or addition.

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.
