Entail Amendment (Scotland) Act 1878
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
2 Liabilities under other contracts for improvements to devolve on heir.
The heirs succeeding to such institute or heir in possession as aforesaid shall in like manner as above provided be bound, unless otherwise expressly directed by him, to relieve to the extent aforesaid his executors, or other personal representatives, of all liabilities which he may have undertaken in any contracts or agreements for or with reference to the execution of improvements of the description aforesaid on the mansion-house and offices of the entailed estate, or any other parts of the estate not under lease, and to repay to the extent aforesaid to such executors or other personal representatives any sums of money which they may be called upon to pay and may have paid in virtue of such contracts or agreements.

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.
