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

845F Effect of claim on relief for contributions to registered pension schemes

(1) Subsection (2) applies where— (a) an individual makes a foreign income claim for a tax year, (b) the individual is entitled to relief under section 188 of FA 2004 (relief for contributions) for that tax year, and (c) the maximum amount of relief to which the individual is entitled under that section for that tax year is greater than the basic amount within the meaning of section 190(4) of that Act. (2) The maximum amount of relief to which the individual is entitled under section 188 of that Act for that tax year is to be reduced by the lesser of— (a) the relevant amount, and (b) the amount that would reduce the maximum amount of relief to the basic amount. (3) The “relevant amount” is the amount of the relief to which the individual is entitled under section 845A(2) of this Act as a result of making the foreign income claim, so far as that amount reflects relevant qualifying foreign income. (4) An amount of qualifying foreign income is “relevant qualifying foreign income” if the income is relevant UK earnings within the meaning of section 189(2) of FA 2004.

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.
