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

240 Appeals against proposed determinations

(1) Subsection (2) applies if it appears to an officer of Revenue and Customs that— (a) a determination is needed of an amount that is to be brought into account as a receipt under this Chapter in calculating the liability to tax of a person (“the first taxpayer”), and (b) the determination may affect the liability to corporation tax, income tax or capital gains tax of other persons. (2) The officer may give notice (a “provisional notice of determination”) to the first taxpayer and the other persons of— (a) the determination the officer proposes to make, and (b) their rights under this section and section 242. (3) A person to whom a provisional notice of determination is given may object to the proposed determination by giving notice (“a notice of objection”) to the officer. (4) The notice of objection must be given within 30 days of the date on which the provisional notice of determination was given. (5) If an officer gives provisional notices of determination and no person gives a notice of objection— (a) a determination must be made by the officer as proposed in the provisional notices, and (b) the determination is not to be called in question in any proceedings.

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.
