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

99 Arrangements not at arm's length

(1) This section applies if— (a) two or more of the parties to the property arrangements are connected persons, and (b) the terms of those arrangements are not such as would reasonably have been expected if those persons had been dealing at arm's length. (2) The terms of the property arrangements meet the condition in subsection (1)(b) if they differ to a significant extent from the terms which, at the time the arrangements were entered into, would be regarded as normal and reasonable— (a) in the market conditions then prevailing, and (b) between persons dealing with each other at arm's length in the open market. (3) The whole amount or value of the reverse premium brought into account under section 98 is brought into account in the first relevant period of account. (4) “The first relevant period of account” means the period of account in which the property transaction is entered into. (5) However if the recipient enters into the property transaction for the purposes of a trade— (a) which is not then carried on by the recipient, but (b) which the recipient subsequently starts to carry on, “the first relevant period of account” means the first period of account in which the recipient carries on the trade.

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.
