Church of Scotland (Property and Endowments) (Amendment) Act 1957
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
1 Amendment of 15 & 16 Geo. 5. c. 33, s. 36.
For the purposes of the proviso to section thirty-six of the Church of Scotland (Property and Endowments) Act 1925 (in this Act referred to as “the principal Act”) a benefice with more than one incumbency, being a benefice which was not actually vacant at the passing of the principal Act and which has not become actually vacant before the passing of this Act, shall be deemed to become actually vacant— (a) if at the passing of this Act there were more incumbents than one of the benefice, on the termination of the interest of that one of them who last ceases to be an incumbent of the benefice; or (b) if at the passing of this Act there was only one incumbent of the benefice, on the termination of the interest of that incumbent; and from the date on which such a benefice as aforesaid is by virtue of this section deemed to have become actually vacant the said section thirty-six shall, in relation to that benefice, have effect as if the proviso thereto were omitted.

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.
