Sheriff Courts and Legal Officers (Scotland) Act 1927
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
20 Summary of complaints at instance of procurator fiscal.
A complaint under the Summary Jurisdiction (Scotland) Acts at the instance of a person discharging the duties of procurator fiscal for any district, may, in the event of that person dying or ceasing to be entitled to discharge the duties of procurator fiscal for such district, be taken up and proceeded with by any other person entitled to discharge such duties.

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.

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.
