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

1179DZ Effect of move out of higher-percentage category

(1) Subsection (2) applies if, for an accounting period, a production company is entitled to, and claims, an audiovisual expenditure credit— (a) in respect of a film on the basis that it is an animation, or (b) in respect of a television programme on the basis that it is an animation or a children’s programme. (2) The production company may not, for any subsequent accounting period, claim an audiovisual expenditure credit in respect of the film or programme on the basis that it is— (a) a qualifying film other than an animation, or (b) a qualifying television programme other than an animation or a children’s programme. (3) Subsection (2) ceases to apply if the company amends its company tax return for the accounting period referred to in subsection (1) to withdraw the claim for expenditure credit for that period. (4) An amendment may be made for that purpose despite any limitation on the time within which the return could normally be amended.

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.
