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.

689 Amount A

(1) In section 688, amount A is the lower of— (a) the amount of the company's capital immediately before the change in ownership, and (b) the highest 60 day minimum amount for the pre-change year. (2) The highest 60 day minimum amount for the pre-change year is found as follows. Step 1 Find the daily amounts of the company's capital over the pre-change year. Step 2 Take the highest of the daily amounts. Step 3 Find out whether there was in the pre-change year a period of at least 60 days in which there was no daily amount lower than the amount taken. Step 4 If there was, the amount taken is the highest 60 day minimum amount for the pre-change year. If there was not, take the next highest of the daily amounts and repeat step 3; and so on, until the highest 60 day minimum amount for the pre-change year is found. (3) In this section “the pre-change year” means the period of one year ending immediately before the change in ownership.

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.
