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

870A Claims for relief made under sections 152 and 153 of TCGA 1992

(1) Subsection (2) applies where— (a) a company has made a claim for relief under section 152 or 153 of TCGA 1992 (roll-over relief) during the period beginning with 1 April 2009 and ending with 19 March 2014, and (b) the relief claimed relates to disposal proceeds that are applied in acquiring an intangible fixed asset within the meaning of this Part. (2) The company is treated for the purposes of this Part as if the cost of the asset recognised for tax purposes were reduced on 19 March 2014 by the amount in respect of which the relief under section 152 or 153 of TCGA 1992 is given. (3) But the effect of subsection (2) must not be to reduce the tax written-down value of the asset to below nil. (4) The references to adjustments in sections 742(3) and 743(3) (assets written down) include any adjustment required by subsection (2).

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.
