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

1217QA Election for concert series

(1) An election under section 1217Q(4) must be made by the company by notice in writing to an officer of Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs— (a) before the date on which the company first delivers a company tax return for a period in relation to which a concert in the series falls to be treated in accordance with section 1217Q, or (b) if later, before the date of the first concert in the series. (2) An election has effect in relation to the orchestral concerts specified in it, and must also specify which of those concerts (if any) are not to be qualifying orchestral concerts (see section 1217RA(3)). (3) An election— (a) may have effect in relation to concerts in two or more accounting periods, and (b) is irrevocable. (4) If the separate orchestral trade relates to a concert series, the company is treated as beginning to carry on that trade— (a) at the beginning of the pre-performance stage of the first concert in the series, or (b) if earlier, at the time of the first receipt by the company of any income from the production of the concert series.

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.
