Scotland Act 1998
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
90 Power to transfer property of cross-border public authorities.
(1) This section applies if an Act of the Scottish Parliament provides for any functions of a cross-border public authority to be no longer exercisable in or as regards Scotland. (2) Her Majesty may by Order in Council provide— (a) for the transfer of any property to which this section applies, or (b) for any person to have such rights or interests in relation to any property to which this section applies as Her Majesty considers appropriate (whether in connection with a transfer or otherwise). (3) This section applies to property belonging to the cross-border public authority concerned which appears to Her Majesty— (a) to be held or used wholly or partly for or in connection with the exercise of any of the functions concerned, or (b) not to be within paragraph (a) but, when last held or used for or in connection with the exercise of any function, to have been so held or used for or in connection with the exercise of any of the functions concerned. (4) Her Majesty may by Order in Council provide for the transfer of any liabilities— (a) to which the cross-border public authority concerned is subject, and (b) which appear to Her Majesty to have been incurred wholly or partly for or in connection with the exercise of any of the functions concerned. (5) No recommendation shall be made to Her Majesty in Council to make an Order under this section unless the cross-border public authority concerned has been consulted.

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.
