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.

693 Income from Ulster Savings Certificates

(1) No liability to income tax arises in respect of income from authorised Ulster Savings Certificates if condition A, B or C is met. (2) Condition A is that — (a) the holder purchased them, and (b) at the time of the purchase the holder was resident and ordinarily resident in Northern Ireland. (3) Condition B is that the holder is so resident and ordinarily resident when they are repaid. (4) Condition C is that— (a) they are repaid after the holder's death, and (b) at the time of the purchase the holder was so resident and ordinarily resident. (5) An Ulster Savings Certificate is authorised so far as its acquisition was not prohibited by regulations made by the Department of Finance and Personnel limiting a person's holding. (6) The exemption under this section requires a claim. (7) In this Act “Ulster Savings Certificates” means savings certificates issued or treated as issued under section 15 of the Exchequer and Financial Provisions Act (Northern Ireland) 1950 (c. 3 (N.I.)).

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.
