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.

(1) If a company makes a distribution to which section 1100 does not apply , it must make a return to an officer of Revenue and Customs. (2) The return must— (a) contain particulars of the transaction giving rise to the distribution, (b) state the name and address of the recipient, or each recipient, of the distribution, and (c) state the amount or value of the distribution received by the recipient, or each recipient. (3) The return must be made— (a) within 14 days from the end of the accounting period in which the distribution is made, or (b) if the date on which the distribution is made does not fall in an accounting period, within 14 days from that date. (4) If it is not apparent whether or not a transaction gives rise to a distribution to which section 1100 does not apply , the company— (a) must make a return to an officer of Revenue and Customs containing particulars of the transaction, and (b) must do so within the time limit that would be given by subsection (3) if the transaction did give rise to such a distribution. (5) If subsection (4) applies, an officer of Revenue and Customs may serve a notice on the company requiring it to provide any further information in relation to the transaction that the officer reasonably requires. (6) If it appears to an officer of Revenue and Customs that particulars of any transaction should have been, but have not been, included in a return under subsection (1) or (4), the officer may serve a notice on the company requiring it to provide any information relating to the transaction that the officer reasonably requires. (7) The company must provide the information required under subsection (5) or (6) within the time specified in the notice.

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.
