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.

(2) The new policy is treated for the purposes of sections 484 to 497 as having been issued in respect of an insurance made on the day on which the insurance was made in respect of which the old policy was issued. (3) References in Schedule 2 (transitionals and savings) to the time of the making of the insurance in respect of which a policy of life insurance is issued are to be read in accordance with this section.

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.
