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.

(2) The regulations may provide for any credits or debits which would otherwise be brought into account for the purposes of this Part— (a) not to be brought into account, (b) to be brought into account only to a prescribed extent, or (c) to be brought into account over a prescribed period or in prescribed circumstances. (3) Regulations under this section may, in particular, modify the operation of sections 315 to 318. (4) The regulations may make— (a) different provision for different cases, and (b) incidental, supplemental, consequential and transitional provision and savings. (5) The regulations may apply to periods of account beginning before they are made, but not earlier than the beginning of the calendar year in which they are made.

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.
