The Scotland Act 1998 (Transfer of Functions to the Scottish Ministers etc.) Order 2014
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
5 Transitional and saving provisions
(1) The transfer of the function to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of article 2 does not affect the validity of anything done (or having effect as if done) by or in relation to a Minister of the Crown before the date on which the transfer takes effect. (2) Anything (including legal proceedings) which, at the time when that transfer takes effect, is in the process of being done by or in relation to a Minister of the Crown may, so far as it relates to the function transferred, be continued by or in relation to the Scottish Ministers. (3) Anything done (or having effect as if done) by or in relation to a Minister of the Crown for the purposes of or in connection with the function transferred to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of article 2, if in force at the time when that transfer takes effect, is to have effect as if done by or in relation to the Scottish Ministers in so far as that is required for continuing its effect after 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.
How this law is officially changed
Solon does not know this law's official route yet. The proposal is recorded all the same, and the route appears here once its source is added.
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.
