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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

490 Last payment under guaranteed income bonds etc. treated as total surrender

(1) This section applies to a payment that would fall within section 500(d) (payments under guaranteed income bonds etc. treated as surrenders of part of the rights under the contract) apart from section 504(5) (which prevents payments comprising the whole of the last benefit to be paid under such contracts from being so treated). (2) The payment is treated for the purposes of this Chapter as the surrender of all the rights under the contract. (3) A payment to which this section applies is not regarded as interest or as an annual payment for any income tax purposes.

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.
