The Seafarers (Wages and Working Conditions) Regulations 2026
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
7 The national minimum wage equivalent rates
(1) The hourly rate for the purposes of the national minimum wage equivalent is— (a) £12.71 for a non-qualifying seafarer who is aged 21 years or over; (b) £10.85 for a non-qualifying seafarer who is aged 18 years or over (but is not yet aged 21 years); (c) £8.00 for a non-qualifying seafarer who is aged under 18 years; (d) £8.00 for a non-qualifying seafarer to whom the apprenticeship rate applies, as determined in accordance with regulation 9. (2) If the rate in paragraph (1)(d) applies to a non-qualifying seafarer, the rates in paragraph (1)(a) to (c) do not apply to that non-qualifying seafarer.

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.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
