Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979
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
As published
32A Inventory of gardens and designed landscapes
(1) Historic Environment Scotland must compile and maintain (in such form as it thinks fit) an inventory of such gardens and designed landscapes as appear to it to be of national importance.
(2) In subsection (1), references to gardens and designed landscapes are to grounds which have been laid out for artistic effect and, in appropriate cases, include references to any buildings, land, or water on, adjacent, or contiguous to such grounds.
(3) Historic Environment Scotland may, from time to time, modify the inventory so as to—
(a) add an entry relating to grounds mentioned in subsection (2);
(b) remove an entry relating to such grounds;
(c) amend an entry relating to such grounds (whether by excluding anything previously included as part of the grounds or adding anything not previously so included, or otherwise).
(4) As soon as reasonably practicable after including any grounds in the inventory in exercise of its duty under subsection (1), or modifying the inventory under subsection (3), Historic Environment Scotland must—
(a) inform—
(i) the owner of the grounds;
(ii) (if the owner is not the occupier) the occupier of the grounds; and
(iii) any local authority in whose area the grounds are situated,
of the inclusion or modification; and
(b) where the grounds are so included, or the inventory is modified as mentioned in paragraph (a) or (c) of subsection (3), send to any person or any local authority informed under paragraph (a) of this subsection a copy of the entry or, as the case may be, of the amended entry in the inventory relating to the grounds.
(5) Historic Environment Scotland must from time to time publish, in such manner as it thinks fit, a list of all the gardens and designed landscapes which are for the time being included in the inventory.

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.

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.
