Scottish Board of Health Act 1919
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
8 Provisions as to Orders in Council.
(1) Any Order in Council made under this Act may be revoked or varied by a subsequent Order. (2) Before any Order in Council under this Act . . . is made, notice of the proposal to make the Order and of the place where copies of a draft of the Order can be obtained shall be published in the Edinburgh Gazette, and in such other manner as the Board think best adapted for insuring publicity, and a draft of the Order shall be laid before each House of Parliament for not less than thirty days on which such House is sitting. (3) In the case of an Order providing for any transfer of powers and duties to or from the Board under subsection (2), or under subsection (3), of section four of this Act, the Order shall not take effect until both Houses of Parliament have by resolution approved the same and shall take effect subject to any modifications and adaptations which may be agreed to by both Houses of Parliament; and in the case of any other Order if either House before the expiration of such thirty days presents an address to His Majesty against the draft, or any part thereof, no further proceedings shall be taken thereon, without prejudice to the making of any new draft 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.
