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

521F Shares becoming or ceasing to be shares to which section 521B applies

(1) This section applies if at any time section 521B begins or ceases to apply in the case of a share held by the investing company. (2) The investing company is treated for the purposes of Part 5— (a) as having disposed of the share immediately before that time for consideration of an amount equal to the notional carrying value of the share at that time, and (b) as having immediately reacquired it for consideration of the same amount. (3) In subsection (2) “ notional carrying value ”, in relation to the share, means the amount which would have been its tax-adjusted carrying value based on the accounts of the investing company if a period of account had ended immediately before section 521B began or ceased to apply in the case of the share and the investing company.

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.
