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.

As published

542 Introduction to Chapter

(1) The purpose of this Chapter is to secure that in the case of an arrangement— (a) which involves the sale of securities and the subsequent purchase of those or similar securities, and (b) which equates, in substance, to a transaction for the lending of money at interest from or to a company, with the securities which were sold as collateral for the loan, the charge to corporation tax reflects the fact that the arrangement equates, in substance, to such a transaction. (2) Sections 543 to 546 make provision about arrangements which are creditor repos or creditor quasi-repos. (3) Sections 548 to 551 make provision about arrangements which are debtor repos or debtor quasi-repos.

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.
