Marriage (Prohibited Degrees of Relationship) Act 1986
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 Marriage between certain persons related by affinity—Scotland.
Schedule 2 (which amends the Marriage (Scotland) Act 1977 so as to permit— (a) the marriage of a man and a woman who is the grandmother of a former spouse of his or is a former spouse of his grandson; (b) the marriage of a woman and a man who is the grandfather of a former spouse of hers or is a former spouse of her grand-daughter; and (c) under certain conditions, the marriage of persons related in certain other degrees of affinity) shall have effect.

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.
