Propose a change

Finance (No. 2) Act 2023

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

150A Instruments held intragroup: issuer’s accounting treatment to prevail

If— (a) a member of a multinational group (“the holder”) holds an interest (of any description) in another member of the group (“the issuer”), and (b) the interest is accounted for as equity in the underlying profits accounts of one of the members and as debt in the underlying profits accounts of the other, the underlying profits of the holder are to be adjusted to what they would be if the interest were accounted for in the holder’s underlying profits accounts in the same way as it is accounted for in the issuer’s.

Your change, as a redline

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.
