Highlands and Islands Development (Scotland) Act 1965 (repealed 20.7.1992)
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
4 Acquisition and disposal of land.
(1) For the purpose of any of their functions under this Act the Board may— (a) with the approval of the Secretary of State, by agreement acquire land, whether by way of purchase, feu, lease or excambion; (b) acquire land compulsorily, if so authorised by the Secretary of State; (c) hold and manage land acquired under this subsection, and with the approval of the Secretary of State, and subject to the subsequent provisions of this section, dispose of or otherwise deal with such land. (2) The Acquisition of Land (Authorisation Procedure) (Scotland) Act 1947 shall apply in relation to the compulsory purchase of land by the Board as if this Act had been in force immediately before the commencement of that Act and as if the Board were a local authority within the meaning of that Act. (3) The disposal of land under this section may be by way of sale, feu, lease or excambion, and there may be created in relation to land held under this section any servitude, right or other privilege, but such land may not be disposed of by way of gift, nor shall any security be constituted in relation to it.

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.
