Planning (Hazardous Substances) (Scotland) Act 1997
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.

(1) Subject to the following provisions of this Act, where an application is made to a planning authority for hazardous substances consent, that authority may— (a) grant hazardous substances consent, either unconditionally or subject to such conditions as they think fit, or (b) refuse hazardous substances consent. (2) In dealing with such an application the planning authority shall have regard to any material considerations and, in particular, but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing— (a) to any current or contemplated use of the land to which the application relates, (b) to the way in which land in the vicinity is being used or is likely to be used, (c) to any planning permission or development consent that has been granted for development of land in the vicinity, (d) to the provisions of the development plan, and (e) to any advice which the safety regulator has given following consultations in pursuance of regulations under section 5(2). (3) If an application relates to more than one hazardous substance, the authority may make different determinations in relation to each. (4) It shall be the duty of a planning authority, when granting hazardous substances consent, to include in that consent— (a) a description of the land to which the consent relates, (b) a description of the hazardous substance or substances to which it relates, and (c) in respect of each hazardous substance to which it relates, a statement of the maximum amount permitted by the consent to be present at any one 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.
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.
