Court of Session Act 1988
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
40A Permission for appeal under section 40
(1) An application to the Inner House for permission to take an appeal under section 40(1) or (3) must be made— (a) within the period of 28 days beginning with the date of the decision against which the appeal is to be taken, or (b) within such longer period as the Inner House considers equitable having regard to all the circumstances. (2) An application to the Supreme Court for permission to take an appeal under section 40(1) must be made— (a) within the period of 28 days beginning with the date on which the Inner House refuses permission for the appeal, or (b) within such longer period as the Supreme Court considers equitable having regard to all the circumstances. (3) The Inner House or the Supreme Court may grant permission for an appeal under section 40(1) or (3) only if the Inner House or, as the case may be, the Supreme Court considers that the appeal raises an arguable point of law of general public importance which ought to be considered by the Supreme Court at that time.

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.
