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

283 Valuation where excess of nominated proceeds

(1) This section applies if an excess of nominated proceeds for a chargeable period— (a) is taken into account in calculating a company's profits under section 2(5)(e) of OTA 1975, or (b) would have been so taken into account if the company were chargeable to tax under OTA 1975 in respect of an oil field. (2) For the purposes of the charge to corporation tax on income, the amount of the excess is to be added to the consideration which the company is treated as having received in respect of oil disposed of by it in the period. (3) For corporation tax purposes, that amount is to be available to the company as a deduction in calculating the profits of any trade which (whether because of section 279 or otherwise) does not consist of activities falling within the definition of “oil-related activities” in section 274.

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.
