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.

73 Transport purposes
(1) In this Part, the “transport purposes” means the purposes of—
(a) protecting against risks relating to the civil transport of radioactive material in Great Britain by road, rail or inland waterway which arise out of, or in connection with, the radioactive nature of the material, and
(b) ensuring the security of radioactive material during civil transport in Great Britain by road, rail or inland waterway.
(2) For this purpose—
(a) “civil transport” means transport otherwise than for the purposes of the department of the Secretary of State with responsibility for defence;
(b) “radioactive material”—
(i) in relation to transport by road, has the same meaning as in ADR,
(ii) in relation to transport by rail, has the same meaning as in RID, and
(iii) in relation to transport by inland waterway, has the same meaning as in ADN;
(c) the transport of material begins with any preparatory process (such as packaging) and continues until the material has been unloaded at its destination.
(3) In subsection (2)(b)—
“ADN” means the Regulations annexed to the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterway (signed at Geneva on 26 May 2000);
“ADR” means Annexes A and B to the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (signed at Geneva on 30 September 1957);
“RID” means the Annex to Appendix C to the Convention concerning International Carriage by Rail (signed at Berne on 9 May 1980) (the Regulation concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail);
and any reference to, or to an appendix to, an Agreement, a Convention or a Treaty, or to an annex to any of them, is to it as it has effect for the time being.
(4) The Secretary of State may by regulations modify the definition of “radioactive material”.

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.
Sign in to file your proposal. What you have written stays on this page.
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.
