Countryside (Scotland) Act 1967
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
40 Approval of proposals relating to a long-distance route.
(1) On the submission to the Secretary of State of a report under the last foregoing section, he shall consider any proposals contained in the report under subsection (2) of that section, any recommendations made under subsection (3) thereof and any representations referred to in subsection (5) thereof, and may either approve the proposals, with or without modifications or subject to such conditions as he thinks fit, or reject the proposals: Provided that where the Secretary of State does not propose to approve the proposals as set out in the report he shall, before coming to a determination as to what action to take under this subsection, consult with Scottish Natural Heritage and such other authorities and persons as he may think fit. (2) As soon as may be after the Secretary of State determines under the last foregoing subsection either to approve any proposals, with or without modifications or conditions, or to reject them, he shall notify his determination to Scottish Natural Heritage and to every local planning authority whose area is traversed by the route to which the report relates. (3) Proposals approved by the Secretary of State under subsection (1) above, either as originally set out in the report or as modified by the Secretary of State, are hereinafter referred to as “approved proposals relating to a long-distance route”, and such proposals shall be implemented by the local planning and other authorities concerned as soon as may be after their approval as aforesaid.

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.
