Propose a change

Corporation Tax Act 2009

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

1179DR Expenditure that qualifies for credit

(1) Expenditure incurred by the production company for a film or television programme counts as “relevant production expenditure” for the purposes of section 1179CA(2) if— (a) it is core expenditure in relation to that film or television programme (see section 1179DS), and (b) it is not excluded expenditure (see sections 1179DT and 1179DU). (2) But for the purposes of step 1 in section 1179CA(1) as it applies in relation to a certified low-budget film (see section 1179DJA(9))— (a) no more than £15 million can count towards the total of the production company’s relevant global expenditure, and (b) UK expenditure counts towards that total before other expenditure.

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.
