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.

What to do with it
As published

169R Reorganisations involving acquisition of qualifying corporate bonds

(1) This section applies where the calculation under section 116(10)(a) would (apart from this section) have effect to produce a chargeable gain for an individual by reason of a relevant transaction. (2) If an election is made under this section, a claim for business asset disposal relief may be made as if the relevant transaction involved a disposal of the old asset; and if such a claim is made section 116(10) does not apply. (3) An election under this section must be made— (a) if the relevant transaction, so far as it relates to the old asset, would (apart from section 116(10)) involve a disposal of trust business assets, jointly by the trustees and the qualifying beneficiary, and (b) otherwise, by the individual. (4) An election under this section must be made on or before the first anniversary of the 31 January following the tax year in which the relevant transaction takes place. (5) In this section, “old asset” and “relevant transaction” have the meaning given by section 116.

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.
