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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

15 Continuation of residence established under common law

(1) This section applies to a company which is neither— (a) incorporated in the United Kingdom, nor (b) resident in the United Kingdom by virtue of section 16 or 17. (2) If the company— (a) is no longer carrying on a business, and (b) was UK resident for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts immediately before it ceased to carry on business, the company continues to be UK resident for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts. (3) If the company— (a) is being wound up outside the United Kingdom, and (b) was UK resident for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts immediately before any of its activities came under the control of a foreign liquidator, the company continues to be UK resident for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts. (4) In subsection (3) “foreign liquidator” means a person exercising functions which, in the United Kingdom, would be exercisable by a liquidator.

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.
