Marine And Aviation Insurance (War Risks) Act 1952
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
2 Insurance by Minister of Transport of ships, aircraft and cargoes.
(1) The Board may, with the approval of the Treasury, carry on business under and in accordance with all or any of the following provisions of this subsection, that is to say:— (a) at any time when it appears to the Board that reasonable and adequate facilities for the insurance of British ships or British aircraft against war risks, or any description of such risks, are not available, for the insurance by the Board of such ships, or as the case may be, such aircraft, against such risks or, as the case may be, that description thereof; (b) during the continuance of any war or other hostilities in which Her Majesty is engaged, for the insurance by the Board of ships and aircraft (whether British or not); (c) at any time when it appears to the Board that reasonable and adequate facilities for the insurance of cargoes carried in ships or aircraft against war risks, or any description of such risks, are not available, for the insurance by the Board of such cargoes against such risks or, as the case may be, that description thereof; (d) during the continuance of any war or other hostilities in which Her Majesty is engaged, for the insurance by the Board of cargoes carried in ships or aircraft; (e) during the continuance of any such war or hostilities, for the insurance by the Board of goods consigned for carriage by sea or by air, while the goods are in transit between the premises from which they are consigned and the ship or aircraft or between the ship or aircraft and their destination: Provided that the Board shall not, by virtue of paragraph (b), (d) or (e) of this subsection, undertake the insurance of a ship, aircraft or cargo against risks other than war risks unless the Board is satisfied that, in the interests of the defence of the realm or the efficient prosecution of any such war or hostilities as aforesaid, it is necessary or expedient so to do. (2) References in paragraphs (a) and (b) of the foregoing subsection to ships of any description and to aircraft of any description shall be construed as including references to any machinery, tackle, furniture or equipment of ships of that description and aircraft of that description respectively and to any goods on board of ships of the description and aircraft of that description respectively, not being cargo carried therein, and the reference in the proviso to that subsection to a ship or aircraft shall accordingly be similarly construed. (3) In paragraph (e) of subsection (1) of this section the expression “the ship or aircraft”, in relation to goods consigned for carriage by sea or by air, does not include a vessel from which the goods are discharged for the purpose of being carried by sea or by air or into which they are discharged for the purpose of being landed.

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.
