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

120 Replacement of part sold begun within 5 years of sale

(1) This section applies for the purpose of calculating the profits of the trade if— (a) either all at once or over a period not longer than 12 months, a substantial part of the herd is sold, and (b) the farmer acquires or starts to acquire animals to replace the part sold within 5 years of the sale. (2) Section 114 (replacement of animals in herd) applies so far as the animals included in the part sold are replaced (but see section 121 (sale for reasons outside farmer's control)). (3) The sale proceeds of an animal included in the part sold are not brought into account as a receipt until the animal that replaces it in the herd is acquired. (4) If some of the animals included in the part sold are not replaced— (a) a profit arising from their sale is not brought into account as a receipt, and (b) no deduction is allowed for a loss arising from their sale.

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.
