Finance Act 2021

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.

84 Regulations

(1) Regulations under this Part— (a) may make different provision for different purposes; (b) may include incidental, consequential, supplementary, transitional or transitory provision. (2) Regulations under this Part may make provision by reference to things specified in a notice that is— (a) published by the Commissioners in accordance with the regulations, and (b) not withdrawn by a further notice. (3) Any power of the Commissioners to make regulations under this Part may instead be exercised by the Treasury. (4) Regulations under this Part are to be made by statutory instrument. (5) A statutory instrument containing regulations under the following provisions is subject to the made affirmative procedure— (a) section 48(5) (meaning of “packaging component”); (b) section 49(8) (meaning of “plastic” and “recycled plastic” , “recycled plastic” and “attributed recycled plastic”); (ba) section 50(3) (timing of importation); (c) section 52 (exempt plastic packaging components); (d) section 80(8) or (9) (penalties for contravening relevant requirements). (6) Any other statutory instrument containing regulations under this Part is subject to annulment in pursuance of a resolution of the House of Commons (“the negative procedure”). (7) But subsection (6) does not apply to a statutory instrument containing only regulations under section 85 (commencement of this Part). (8) Where a statutory instrument under this Act is subject to “the made affirmative procedure”— (a) it must be laid before the House of Commons after being made, and (b) it ceases to have effect at the end of the period of 28 sitting days beginning with the day on which the instrument is made, unless within that period the instrument is approved by a resolution of the House of Commons. (9) Where regulations cease to have effect as a result of subsection (8), that does not— (a) affect anything previously done under the regulations, or (b) prevent the making of new regulations. (10) Any provision that may be included in regulations in a statutory instrument under this Act subject to the negative procedure may be included in regulations in a statutory instrument subject to the made affirmative procedure. (11) In this section, “sitting day” means a day on which the House of Commons is sitting (and a day is only a day on which the House of Commons is sitting if the House begins to sit on that day).

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.
