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

392 SIP shares: introduction

(1) Sections 393 to 395 contain special rules about the charge under this Chapter in respect of shares awarded to an individual under a Schedule 2 share incentive plan. (2) Those sections only apply if condition A or B was met at the time the shares in question were so awarded. (3) Condition A is that— (a) the earnings from the eligible employment were general earnings (see section 7(3) of ITEPA 2003) to which any of the charging provisions of Chapter 4 or 5 of Part 2 of ITEPA 2003 applied, or (b) if there had been any earnings from it, they would have been such earnings. (4) In subsection (3)— (a) “the eligible employment” means the employment resulting in the individual meeting the employment requirement in relation to the plan, and (b) the reference to any of the charging provisions of Chapter 4 or 5 of Part 2 of ITEPA 2003 has the same meaning as it has in the employment income Parts of that Act (see sections 14(3) and 20(3) of that Act). (5) Condition B is that— (a) the shares were awarded before 6th April 2003, and (b) the individual was liable for tax under Schedule E in respect of the relevant employment. (6) In subsection (5) “the relevant employment” means the employment by reference to which the individual met the requirements in paragraph 14 of Schedule 8 to FA 2000 (employee share ownership plans: the employment requirement) in relation to the plan. (7) See section 396 for the general interpretation of this section and sections 393 to 395.

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.
