(ia) a Reserved Investor Fund (Contractual Scheme), or (ii) a relevant offshore fund, (b) that is wholly in exchange for the company being issued with units in the scheme, and (c) the condition in subsection (3) is met. (2) For the purposes of corporation tax on chargeable gains, the company is to be treated— (a) as having disposed of the asset mentioned in subsection (1)(a) for a consideration of such amount as would secure that on the disposal neither a gain nor a loss would accrue to the company, and (b) as having acquired the units mentioned in subsection (1)(b) for a consideration of the same amount.

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.
