Industrial Development (Ships) Act 1970 (repealed 5.11.1993)
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 Restriction of [Secretary of State’s] power.
(1) If, in the case of an application to which this section applies for a grant under section 5(1) of the Industrial Development Act 1966 (grants towards approved capital expenditure incurred in providing a new ship or in converting a ship), the Treasury are of opinion that the granting it by the Secretary of State would operate to the detriment of the United Kingdom in the matter of its balance of payments, they may direct him to refrain from granting it. (2) This section applies to an application received by the Secretary of State after 10th November 1969, other than— (a) an application for a grant in respect of the provision or conversion of a ship, where it is shown to the satisfaction of that Minister that, when all of the work involved in the provision or conversion is completed, none of it (or none of the bulk of it) will be found to have been done at a place which, when it was done, was outside the area which was then the Convention area for the purposes of the European Free Trade Association Act 1960 and the Republic of Ireland; or (b) an application for a grant in respect of the provision of a ship, where it is shown to the satisfaction of that Minister that the provision thereof is in fulfilment of a binding obligation incurred before that day or in respect of the conversion of a ship, where it is so shown that the conversion thereof is in fulfilment of a binding obligation so incurred.

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.
