Propose a change

Corporation Tax Act 2010

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

1022 Bonus issue following repayment of share capital treated as distribution

(1) Subsection (3) applies if a company— (a) repays or has repaid any share capital, and (b) at or after the time of the repayment issues any share capital as paid up otherwise than by the receipt of new consideration. (2) But subsection (3) does not apply so far as any provision of the Corporation Tax Acts makes contrary provision. (3) The amount paid up as mentioned in subsection (1)(b) is treated for the purposes of the Corporation Tax Acts as a distribution made in respect of the shares on which it is paid up, except so far as that amount exceeds the adjusted amount of the repaid share capital. (4) The reference in subsection (3) to the adjusted amount of the repaid share capital is to— (a) the amount, or total amount, of share capital repaid as mentioned in subsection (1)(a), minus (b) any amounts previously paid up as mentioned in subsection (1)(b) and treated as distributions by virtue of subsection (3).

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.
