The Merchant Shipping (Small Workboats and Pilot Boats) Regulations 2023
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.

19 Incident reporting
(1) Where an owner or master of a vessel, in respect of which a certificate has been issued under these Regulations, becomes aware that the vessel has been involved in an incident, the owner or master must report that incident to the Certifying Authority which issued the certificate at the earliest opportunity and in any event before the vessel undertakes any further voyage. (2) Where a report has been made under paragraph (1), the Certifying Authority must— (a) determine whether an emergency survey is necessary, and, if so, require one to be carried out at the earliest opportunity in accordance with regulation 8(6), and (b) notify the owner and master of its decision in writing. (3) In this regulation, “incident” means— (a) any collision, (b) any grounding except where this occurs as a part of the vessel’s intended operation, (c) any fire, (d) an event or sequence of events other than those listed in sub-paragraphs (a) to (c) which has occurred directly in connection with the operation of a ship that endangered, or if not corrected would endanger the safety of a ship, its occupants or any other person or the environment involving— (i) the hull, (ii) the keel or keel attachments, (iii) the rudder, (iv) any other fitting that is below the waterline, (v) the propulsion system, (vi) any steerage equipment, (vii) any machinery, or (viii) the failure of any other part which makes it unsafe to operate the vessel or compromises the safety of— (aa) persons on board, (bb) other vessels, or (cc) the marine environment.

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.
