Northern Ireland Arms Decommissioning (Amendment) Act 2002
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
1 Extension of amnesty period
(1) Section 2 of the Northern Ireland Arms Decommissioning Act 1997 (c. 7) (duration of decommissioning scheme) is amended as follows. (2) In subsection (2)(a), for “the first anniversary of the day on which this Act is passed” substitute “ 27th February 2003 ”. (3) In subsection (3)(b), for “more than five years after the day on which this Act is passed” substitute “ later than 27th February 2007 ”. (4) If this section comes into force after 26th February 2002, a scheme which would at any time have been a decommissioning scheme for the purposes of the Northern Ireland Arms Decommissioning Act 1997 had this section come into force on that date, is to be treated as having been such a scheme at that time.

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.
