Antarctic Act 1994
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
5 Permits required for British vessels and aircraft entering Antarctica.
(1) No British vessel or British aircraft may enter Antarctica except in accordance with a permit granted under this section or under the written authorisation of another Contracting Party. (2) Subsection (1) does not apply— (a) to a vessel or aircraft travelling to an immediate destination outside Antarctica, or (b) to a vessel entering Antarctica for the sole purpose of fishing for profit. (3) In this section— “British vessel” means a United Kingdom ship within the meaning of section 21(1) of the Merchant Shipping Act 1979, and “British aircraft” means a British-controlled aircraft within the meaning of section 92 of the Civil Aviation Act 1982. (4) If subsection (1) is contravened— (a) the operator of the vessel or aircraft, and (b) the master of the vessel or the commander of the aircraft, shall each be guilty of an offence. (5) The Secretary of State may on the application of any person grant to him a permit authorising any British vessel or aircraft of which he is the operator and which is specified or of a description specified in the permit to enter Antarctica on occasions or in circumstances specified in the permit.

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.
