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
9 Lease may be renewed two years before expiration.
It shall be lawful for the heir in possession of an entailed estate, where any portion of the estate is held by a tenant under a current lease for not less than seven years, at any time within two years previous to the expiration of such lease, to grant a new lease at a fair rent, to commence at such expiration, and if such heir in possession shall die before the commencement of the new lease, it shall be as valid as if he were still alive. Provided, that it shall not be lawful for such heir in possession to take any grassum or consideration for granting such lease other than the rent, and if the rent fixed shall be less than a fair rent, or if any such grassum or consideration shall be taken, such lease shall be null and void.

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.
