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.

75 Retraining courses: recovery of tax

(1) This section applies if— (a) an employer's liability to corporation tax for an accounting period is determined on the assumption that a deduction for expenditure is allowed under section 74, and (b) the deduction would not otherwise have been allowed. (2) If, subsequently— (a) the condition in section 311(4)(a) of ITEPA 2003 is not met because of the employee's failure to begin the course within the period of one year after ceasing to be employed, or (b) the condition in section 311(4)(b) of ITEPA 2003 is not met because of the employee's continued employment or re-employment, an assessment of an amount or further amount of corporation tax due as a result of the condition not being met may be made under paragraph 41 of Schedule 18 to FA 1998. (3) Such an assessment must be made before the end of the period of 6 years immediately following the end of the accounting period in which the failure to meet the condition occurred. (4) If subsection (2) applies, the employer must give an officer of Revenue and Customs a notice containing particulars of— (a) the employee's failure to begin the course, (b) the employee's continued employment, or (c) the employee's re-employment, within 60 days of coming to know of it.

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.
