Entail (Scotland) Act 1882
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
4 Heirs under new entails may sell, lease, feu, and charge on the same conditions as heirs under old entails.
It shall be lawful for an heir in possession of an entailed estate held under an entail, dated on or after the first day of August one thousand eight hundred and forty-eight, to sell the estate and to grant feus and long leases, and to charge the estate with debts or incumbrances and for improvement expenditure, and to convey, bequeath, or assign the amount of such expenditure in like manner and with the like consents as if the entail were dated prior to the said date.

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.
