United Parishes (Scotland) Act 1876
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.

3 Power of court to declare one of the glebes of united parish to be the glebe of new parish.
If in the course of any proceedings under the recited Act for the disjunction of a portion of a united parish in Scotland and for its erection into a parish quoad sacra, it shall appear that there is more than one glebe forming part of the benefice of such united parish, it shall be lawful for the Court of Teinds, upon sufficient evidence being produced of the consent of the presbytery, in pronouncing decree of disjunction and erection, to declare that one of such glebes, duly described by its marches and boundaries and with its parts and pertinents, shall be transferred from the minister of such united parish to the minister of such parish quoad sacra; and such glebe shall thereafter be the glebe of the said parish quoad sacra; and the minister thereof shall be invested with all those rights in relation thereto which were formerly vested in the minister of the said united parish: Provided always, that the right to the personal occupancy and enjoyment of such glebe as aforesaid shall continue with the minister of the said united parish in office at the date of such decree during his incumbency, unless he shall, by a deed duly executed and lodged with the clerk of the presbytery, renounce the same.

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.
