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.

What to do with it
As published

1035 Requirement as to period of ownership

(1) The shares must have been owned by the seller throughout the 5 years ending with the date of the purchase. (2) In determining whether the requirement in subsection (1) is met in a case where the seller acquired shares of the same class at different times— (a) shares acquired earlier are taken into account before shares acquired later, and (b) any previous disposal by the seller of shares of that class is assumed to be a disposal of shares acquired later rather than of shares acquired earlier. (3) If the time when any shares were acquired would be determined for the purposes of capital gains tax under any provision of Chapter 2 of Part 4 of TCGA 1992 (reorganisation of share capital, conversion of securities etc) then, unless the shares— (a) were allotted for payment, or (b) were comprised in share capital to which section 1049 (stock dividends) applies, the time when the shares were acquired is determined in the same way for the purposes of this section.

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.
