The Disclosure (Scotland) Act 2020 (Consequential Provisions and Modifications) Order 2025
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
12 Duty to make fingerprint records available
(1) Any person who holds records of fingerprints for the use of police forces generally must make those records available to the Scottish Ministers for the purposes of section 59 of the Disclosure Act (power to use fingerprints to check identity). (2) Paragraph (1) does not apply to records that must be made available to the Scottish Ministers by virtue of section 59(5) of the Disclosure Act. (3) For the purposes of paragraph (1), “police forces” has the same meaning as it has for the purposes of section 59(5) of the Disclosure Act.

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.
