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

655 Claims under section 651 or 652

(1) A claim under section 651 or 652 must be made— (a) within two years after the end of the accounting period to which it relates, or (b) if it relates to part of an accounting period, within two years after the end of that accounting period. (2) A self-build society must not make a claim under section 651 or 652 for an accounting period or part of an accounting period unless— (a) the requirements in subsection (3) were complied with during that period or part, or (b) the society reasonably considers that those requirements were substantially complied with during that period or part. (3) The requirements are that— (a) only persons who were then members of the society occupied (whether solely or jointly with another person) any land, or any part of any land, owned by the society, (b) the society complied with the requirement in section 653(2)(a), and (c) the society complied with any conditions that were in force by virtue of section 653(2)(c). (4) If a member of a self-build society dies and another person occupies a property, or part of a property, in accordance with the member's will or the provisions applicable on the member's intestacy, that person's occupation during the first 6 months after the death does not infringe the requirement in subsection (3)(a). (5) A claim under section 651 or 652 must be in the form (if any) prescribed by the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs and contain any details which they prescribe.

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.
