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

330 Adjustment income and adjustment expense

(1) An amount by way of adjustment must be calculated in accordance with section 231, which applies in relation to a UK property business as it applies in relation to a trade. (2) If the amount produced by the calculation is positive, it is treated as income and charged to income tax under this Chapter. It is referred to in this Chapter as “adjustment income”. (3) If the amount produced by the calculation is negative, a deduction is allowed for it in calculating the profits of the business. It is referred to in this Chapter as an “adjustment expense”. (4) This section is subject to section 234 (no adjustment for certain expenses previously brought into account), which applies in relation to a UK property business as it applies in relation to a trade.

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.
