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.

(1) This section applies where— (a) a disposal (“the disposal concerned”) is made as mentioned in section 169VC(1), and (b) at the time immediately before the disposal, only some of the shares in the holding are qualifying shares. (2) Where this section applies, for the purposes of section 169VC(3) “the appropriate part” of the chargeable gain on the disposal is so much of that chargeable gain as is found by multiplying it by the appropriate fraction. (3) The appropriate fraction is— Q T where— Q is the number of qualifying shares found under subsection (4), and T is the total number of shares disposed of in the disposal concerned. (4) The number of qualifying shares found under this subsection is— (a) all the qualifying shares in the holding at the time immediately before the disposal concerned, or (b) if less, such number of those qualifying shares as equals the number of shares disposed of in that disposal.

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.
