The Merchant Shipping (Carriage of Cargoes) Regulations 2024
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.

18 Detention
(1) For the purposes of this regulation, any reference to “the Act” is a reference to the Merchant Shipping Act 1995. (2) Any ship which does not comply with the requirements of these Regulations applicable to that ship may be detained. (3) Section 284 of the Act (enforcing detention of ship) applies where a ship is liable to be detained under this regulation as if— (a) references to detention of a ship under the Act were references to detention of the ship in question under this regulation; and (b) subsection (7) were omitted. (4) Where a ship is liable to be detained under this regulation, the person detaining the ship must serve on the master a detention notice which— (a) states the grounds of the detention; and (b) requires the terms of the notice to be complied with until the ship is released by any person mentioned in section 284(1) of the Act. (5) Subject to paragraph (6), section 96 (references of detention notices to arbitration) and section 97 (compensation in connection with invalid detention of a ship) of the Act apply in relation to a detention notice issued pursuant to this regulation as they apply in relation to detention notices issued pursuant to section 95 (power to detain dangerously unsafe ship).

(8) If it is not possible to inform the ship’s flag administration in accordance with paragraph (7), the Secretary of State must inform the Consul of the State of the flag administration, or in the absence of a Consul, the nearest diplomatic representative of the State of the flag administration. (9) For the purposes of paragraphs (7) and (8), “flag administration” in relation to a ship means the administration of the State whose flag the ship is entitled to fly.

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.
