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.

715 Meaning of “transaction entered into in connection with change in ownership”

(1) This section has effect for the purposes of section 714. (2) A transaction is entered into in connection with a change in the ownership of Y if— (a) it is the transaction, or one of the transactions, by which the change is effected, or (b) it is entered into as part of a series of transactions, or scheme, of which transactions effecting the change have formed or will form part. (3) Any reference in this section to a scheme is to a scheme, arrangements or understanding of any kind. (4) It does not matter for the purposes of subsection (3)— (a) whether the scheme, arrangements or understanding is legally enforceable, or (b) how many transactions are involved. (5) It does not matter, for the purpose of determining whether any transactions have formed or will form part of a series of transactions or scheme, that the parties to each of the transactions are not the same. (6) The cases in which any two or more transactions are to be taken as forming part of a series of transactions or scheme include a case in which it would be reasonable to assume that one or more of them— (a) would not have been entered into independently of the other or others, or (b) if entered into independently of the other or others, would not have taken the same form or been on the same terms.

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.
