Propose a change

Finance Act 2013

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

82 Annual report

(1) For each financial year the Treasury must prepare a report containing the information in subsection (2). (2) The information is— (a) the number of decommissioning relief agreements entered into in that year, (b) the total number of decommissioning relief agreements in force at the end of that year, (c) the number of payments made under any decommissioning relief agreements during that year, and the amount of each payment, (d) the total number of payments that have been made under any decommissioning relief agreements as at the end of that year, and the total amount of those payments, and (e) an estimate of the maximum amount liable to be paid under any decommissioning relief agreements. (3) The report for a financial year must be laid before the House of Commons as soon as is reasonably practicable after the end of that year. (4) In this section “decommissioning relief agreement” has the same meaning as in section 80. (5) This section has effect in relation to financial years ending on or after 31 March 2014.

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.
