Propose a change

Social Security (Additional Payments) 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.

As published

3 Qualifying entitlements: tax credits

(1) A person has a qualifying entitlement to child tax credit or working tax credit in respect of a qualifying day if HMRC makes a payment to the person of the credit in question in respect of a day falling within the period of one month ending with that qualifying day (the “qualifying period”). (2) References in this section to HMRC making a payment do not include— (a) a payment made under regulation 10 of the Tax Credits (Payments by the Commissioners) Regulations 2002 (S.I. 2002/2173), where the person to whom HMRC has made the payment would not be entitled to that payment if their entitlement were assessed on any day during the qualifying period, or (b) a payment made as a result of fraud.

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.
