576 Notice under section 572: breach of conditions as to balance of business

(1) An officer of Revenue and Customs may give a notice under section 572(1) if there is a breach of condition A or B in section 531 (balance of business) in 3 consecutive accounting periods. (2) An officer of Revenue and Customs may also give a notice under section 572(1) if, during the relevant 10-year period, either subsection (1) or (2) of section 568 has been relied on more than twice. (3) “The relevant 10-year period” is the period of 10 years beginning with the first day on which subsection (1) or (as the case may be) subsection (2) of section 568 was relied on. (4) In the case of a breach of condition A in section 531, section 568(1) is to be treated for the purposes of subsection (3) as having first been relied on on the last day of the accounting period in which profits are assessed for the purposes of that condition. (5) If a breach of condition A or B in section 531 lasts for— (a) more than one accounting period, but (b) not more than two accounting periods, the UK REIT is to be treated for the purposes of subsection (2) as having relied on section 568(1) or (2) (as the case may be) only once. (6) References in this section to an accounting period do not include a reference to accounting period 1.

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.
