Propose a change

National Insurance Contributions Act 2011

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

9 Retention of records

(1) This section applies where P is or was entitled to make a deduction under section 8 in respect of a qualifying employee. (2) P must keep and preserve any documents or records relating to— (a) P's entitlement to make a deduction in respect of the employee, and (b) the calculation of any amount that has been, or could have been, deducted, for not less than 3 years beginning with the date on which the last deduction under section 8 is, or could be, made in respect of the employee. (3) Accordingly, the duty imposed by paragraph 26(1) of Schedule 4 to the 2001 Regulations (retention by employer of contribution and election records) does not apply to any such documents or records. (4) The duty imposed by this section may be discharged by preserving the documents or records in any form or by any means. (5) For the purposes of Schedule 36 to the Finance Act 2008 (information and inspection powers), as applied by section 110ZA of SSAA 1992 and section 104ZA of SSA(NI)A 1992, the duty imposed by this section is to be treated as if it were a duty imposed under or by virtue of SSCBA 1992 or SSCB(NI)A 1992.

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.
