Succession (Scotland) Act 1964
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
29 Right of tenant to bequeath interest under lease.
(1) A bequest by a tenant of his interest under a tenancy or lease to any one of the persons who, if the tenant had died intestate, would be, or would in any circumstances have been, entitled to succeed to his intestate estate by virtue of this Act shall not be treated as invalid by reason only that there is among the conditions of the tenancy or lease an implied condition prohibiting assignation. (2) This section shall not prejudice the operation of section 16 of the Crofters Holdings (Scotland) Act 1886 or sections 11 or 12A to 12C of the Agricultural Holdings (Scotland) Act 1991or section 21 of the Agricultural Holdings (Scotland) Act 2003 (asp 11) (which relate to bequests in the case of agricultural leases) or of section 10 of the Crofters (Scotland) Act 1955 (which makes similar provisions in relation to crofts.)

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.
