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

40 Ring fence trades: extension of periods for which relief may be given

(1) This section applies if— (a) in an accounting period a company makes a loss in a ring fence trade (as defined in section 162 of CAA 2001), (b) the accounting period is an accounting period for which any allowances under section 164 or by virtue of section 416ZA of CAA 2001 are made to the company in respect of decommissioning expenditure, and (c) not all the loss is a terminal loss (see section 39(3) above). (2) Sections 37(3)(b) and 38(1) and (3) have effect in relation to the loss (so far as it is not a terminal loss) as if the references to 12 months were references to 3 years. (3) But if the loss exceeds the sum of the allowances mentioned in subsection (1)(b), subsection (2) applies in relation to the loss only so far as it does not exceed that amount. (3A) In this section “decommissioning expenditure” has the meaning given by section 330C. (4) This section is subject to section 41.

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.
