Propose a change

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.

What to do with it
As published

283 Provisions supplementary to section 282

(1) This section operates for the purposes of section 282. (2) A lease is granted at an undervalue if the terms subject to which it was granted are such that the landlord who granted it could have required the payment of an additional sum by way of premium, or additional premium, for its grant. (3) The additional sum is the undervalue. (4) The test in subsection (2) must be applied— (a) having regard to values prevailing at the time the lease was granted, and (b) on the assumption that the negotiations for the lease were at arm's length. (5) A profit is made on an assignment of a lease if the consideration for the assignment exceeds— (a) if the lease has not previously been assigned, any premium for which it was granted, or (b) in any other case, any consideration for which it was last assigned. (6) The amount of the excess is the profit.

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.
