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
19 Obligations of an importer and a distributor
(1) An importer which makes available on the market any marine equipment accompanied by a United Kingdom declaration of conformity provided under regulation 12 must ensure that— (a) its name, (b) registered trade name or trade mark, and (c) the address at which it can be contacted, is on the marine equipment or, where that is not possible, on the packaging of the marine equipment or in a document accompanying the equipment or both, as appropriate. (2) The obligations of a manufacturer under these Regulations apply to an importer or a distributor as if that person were a manufacturer where the importer or distributor— (a) makes equipment available on the market under the importer or distributor's own name or trade mark; or (b) modifies equipment already made available on the market in such a way that compliance with applicable international standards or applicable UK standards may be affected.

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.
