Propose a change

Heritable Securities (Scotland) Act 1894

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.

What to do with it
As published

5E Recall of decree

(1) A person mentioned in subsection (2) may apply to the court for recall of a decree granted on an application to which section 5A applies. (2) Those persons are— (a) the creditor, (b) the debtor, but only if the debtor did not appear and was not represented in the proceedings on the application, (c) an entitled resident, but only if the entitled resident did not make an application under section 5C(1) in the proceedings. (3) An application under subsection (1) may be made at any time before the decree has been fully implemented. (4) An application by any person under subsection (1) is not competent if an application under that subsection has already been made by that person in relation to the application to which section 5A applies. (5) An applicant under subsection (1) must give notice of the application to— (a) the creditor (unless the applicant is the creditor), (b) the debtor (unless the applicant is the debtor), (c) every entitled resident (or, if the applicant is an entitled resident, every other entitled resident).

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.

Think it through

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.
