Countryside (Scotland) Act 1981
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
4 Powers of Secretary of State in relation to acquisition of land for public access.
In section 24 of the Act of 1967 (which relates to the acquisition by planning authorities of land for public access), in subsection (1), for the words “or acquire the land compulsorily.” there shall be substituted the words, “ or, with the consent of the Secretary of State, acquire the land compulsorily: provided that the authority may not acquire the land compulsorily unless it is impracticable to obtain such access by an access agreement or an access order.”.

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.
