Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994
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.

112 Simplification of provisions as respects opting for water supply by meter.
For section 41A of the 1980 Act (which makes provision as respects the supply of water by meter) there shall be substituted— Supply of water by meter. 41A The occupier of premises to which water is supplied shall have the option, provided that he has (if he is not himself the owner of the premises) the consent of the owner, of taking the supply by meter; but the exercise of that option shall be conditional upon— (a) the payment by the occupier of any reasonable charges made by the authority under section 35 of this Act; and (b) the acceptance by him of such reasonable terms and conditions as may be published by the water authority under section 55(1) of this Act, and any question as to whether any such charges or terms and conditions are reasonable shall, in default of agreement, be referred to the Secretary of State who may determine it himself or, if he thinks fit, refer it to arbitration. .

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.
