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

947 Rules for determining “A”

(1) Subsections (2) to (4) apply for the purposes of section 945(3)(a) (determination of assets within “A”). (2) An asset is to be ignored if— (a) the predecessor was the predecessor on a previous application of this Chapter, and (b) on that previous application of this Chapter the asset was apportioned under section 952 to a trade carried on by the company that was the successor on that application. (3) The value of an asset is to be taken to be the price which it might reasonably be expected to have fetched on a sale in the open market immediately before the transfer of the transferred trade. (4) If immediately before the transfer of a trade— (a) the predecessor has relevant loan stock (as defined by section 946(8)) that is not included in L, and (b) the stock is secured on an asset of the predecessor that is not transferred to the successor on the transfer of the trade, the value of the asset is reduced by the amount of the liability. (5) Subsection (6) applies for the purposes of section 945(3)(b) (determination of consideration within “A”). (6) If the successor assumes a liability of the predecessor, that does not count as giving consideration.

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.
