As published

472 Gifts qualifying for gift aid relief: corporation tax liability and exemption

(1) If a charitable company receives a gift from an individual and the gift is a qualifying donation for the purposes of Chapter 2 of Part 8 of ITA 2007 (gift aid), the grossed up amount of the gift is treated as an amount in respect of which the company is chargeable to corporation tax, under the charge to corporation tax on income. (2) But the grossed up amount of the gift is not taken into account in calculating total profits so far as that grossed up amount is applied to charitable purposes only. (3) References in this section to the grossed up amount of a gift are to the amount of the gift grossed up by reference to the basic rate for the tax year in which the gift is made. (4) The exemption under subsection (2) requires a claim. (5) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

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.
