Propose a change

Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992

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.

As published

103F Exchanges of units for units in the same scheme

(1) This section applies in the following cases. Case 1 Where— a participant in a collective investment scheme exchanges units in the scheme for other units in the scheme (“new units”) of substantially the same value, and the property subject to the scheme and the rights of participants to share in the capital and income in relation to that property are the same immediately before and immediately after the event (ignoring any changes as a result of a variation in management charges). Case 2 Where there is a reorganisation of the units in a collective investment scheme in which all the participants holding units in the scheme or, where there are different classes of unit in the scheme, all the participants holding units in the same class, exchange all their units for other units (“new units”) in the scheme. (2) Where this section applies— (a) sections 127 to 131 (share reorganisations etc) apply with the necessary adaptations as if the collective investment scheme were a company and the event mentioned in subsection (1) were a reorganisation of its share capital, and (b) any distribution in relation to any new units is to be treated for the purposes of capital gains tax, corporation tax or income tax on the basis set out in section 127 (as adapted). (3) In subsection (1), “management charges” mean the costs charged to the property subject to the scheme in respect of remunerating the parties operating the scheme, administrating the scheme or investing or safeguarding the property subject to the scheme.

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.
