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

(1) This section applies if— (a) a company is UK resident in an accounting period, (b) it is not a close investment-holding company in the period, (c) its augmented profits of the accounting period exceed the lower limit but do not exceed the upper limit, and (d) its augmented profits of the accounting period do not include any ring fence profits. (2) The corporation tax charged on the company's taxable total profits of the accounting period is reduced by an amount equal to— F × ( U − A ) × N A where— F is the standard marginal relief fraction, U is the upper limit, A is the amount of the augmented profits, and N is the amount of the taxable total profits. (3) In this Act “the standard marginal relief fraction” means the fraction set by Parliament for the financial year as the standard marginal relief fraction for the purposes of this Part.

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.
