Railway Assessors (Scotland) Superannuation Act 1897
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.

1 Superannuation allowance to assessor of railways, &c. and clerks, &c. employed by him.
On and after the passing of this Act, the assessor of railways and canals for the time being (herein-after referred to as the assessor) appointed in terms of section twenty of the Lands Valuation (Scotland) Act, 1854, and the clerks or other officers whom he may be allowed to employ permanently in the execution of his duties under that Act, shall each be entitled to such superannuation allowance as may be fixed by the Secretary for Scotland, not exceeding ten sixtieths of his annual salary, with the addition of one sixtieth for every additional completed year of his service beyond ten years. Provided as follows : (i) The allowance shall not, except as herein-after mentioned, be granted to any person unless he has served for a period of ten years : (ii) The allowance of any person shall not exceed forty sixtieths of his annual salary : (iii) The allowance shall not be granted to any person under the age of sixty years, unless he produces a medical certificate to the satisfaction of the Secretary for Scotland that he is incapable from infirmity of mind or body to discharge the duties of his situation, and that his infirmity is likely to be permanent : (iv) The allowance of any person shall be calculated on the amount of annual salary received at the time of retirement, if he shall have been in receipt of the same, or in the class from which he retires, for a period of at least three years immediately before retirement; and in all other cases it shall be calculated on the average amount of annual salary received during the three years next preceding the retirement, such average to be fixed by the Secretary for Scotland.

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.
