(2) Subsection (4) applies if— (a) an individual (“X”) personally performs services for a limited liability partnership at a time when X is not a member of the partnership, (b) X performs the services under arrangements involving a member of the limited liability partnership (“Y”) who is not an individual, (c) the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of those arrangements is to secure that section 863A(2) does not apply in the case of X or in the case of X and one or more other individuals, and (d) in relation to X's performance of the services, an amount falling within subsection (3) arises to Y in respect of Y's membership of the limited liability partnership. (3) An amount falls within this subsection if— (a) were X performing the services under a contract of service by which X were employed by the limited liability partnership, and (b) were the amount to arise to X directly from the limited liability partnership, the amount would be employment income of X in respect of the employment. (4) If this subsection applies, in relation to X's performance of the services, X is to be treated on the following basis— (a) X is a member of the limited liability partnership in whose case section 863A(2) applies, (b) the amount arising to Y arises instead to X directly from the limited liability partnership, (c) that amount is employment income of X in respect of the employment under section 863A(2) accordingly, and (d) neither that amount, nor any amount representing that amount, is to be income of X for income tax purposes on any other basis.

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.
