Crofters Holdings (Scotland) Act 1886
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
9 Compensation to cottar for improvements on removal.
When a cottar if not paying rent is removed from his dwelling and any land or buildings occupied by him in connexion therewith, or if paying rent renounces his tenancy or is removed, he shall be entitled to compensation for any permanent improvements, provided that— (a) such improvements are suitable to the subject; (b) such improvements shall have been executed or paid for by the cottar or his predecessors in the same family; (c) such improvements have not been executed in virtue of any specific agreement in writing under which the cottar was bound to execute such improvements. The provisions of the preceding section and of this section shall not apply to any buildings erected by a crofter or a cottar in violation of any interdict or other judicial order.

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.
