Income Tax (Trading and Other Income) Act 2005

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.

2 Overview of priority rules

(1) This Act contains some rules establishing an order of priority in respect of certain amounts which would otherwise— (a) fall within a charge to income tax under two or more Chapters or Parts of this Act, or (b) fall within a charge to income tax under a Chapter or Part of this Act and ITEPA 2003. (2) See, in particular— section 4 (provisions which must be given priority over Part 2), section 261 (provisions which must be given priority over Part 3), section 262 (priority between Chapters within Part 3), section 366 (provisions which must be given priority over Part 4), section 367 (priority between Chapters within Part 4), section 575 (provisions which must be given priority over Part 5), and section 576 (priority between Chapters within Part 5). (3) But the rules in those sections need to be read with other rules of law (whether in this Act or otherwise) about the scope of particular provisions or the order of priority to be given to them. (4) Section 171(2) of FA 1993 (profits of Lloyd's underwriters charged only under Chapter 2 of Part 2 of this Act) and sections 16A (voluntary office-holders: compensation for lost profits), 16B (payments to company directors) and 16C (professionals in practice: incidental income from an office or employment) of this Act are each an example of another rule of law.

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.
