SCHEDULE 4 Supplemental taxation provisions for exempt activities
Section 27
Exempt activities to be separate trade
1 Exempt activities carried on—
(a) by the NDA, or
(b) by a company while it is an NDA company,
are to be treated for corporation tax purposes as a separate trade distinct from all other activities carried on by the NDA or (as the case may be) that company.
Accounting periods of companies carrying on exempt activities
2 (1) An accounting period of the NDA or of an NDA company ends (if it would not otherwise do so)—
(a) where it begins to carry on exempt activities, immediately before it begins to carry them on; and
(b) where it ceases to carry on such activities, immediately after it so ceases.
(2) An accounting period of a company which—
(a) becomes an NDA company, and
(b) is carrying on exempt activities immediately after becoming such a company,
ends (if it would not otherwise do so) when it becomes an NDA company.
(3) An accounting period of a company which—
(a) ceases to be an NDA company, and
(b) is carrying on exempt activities immediately before ceasing to be such a company,
ends (if it would not otherwise do so) when it ceases to be an NDA company.
Charges on income in connection with exempt activities
3 No qualifying charitable donations made—
(a) by the NDA, or
(b) by an NDA company,
in connection with the carrying on of exempt activities are to be deductible from its total profits under Part 6 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010.
Finance leasing of plant and machinery
4 (1) This paragraph applies where there is a finance lease in the case of which—
(a) the lessor is the NDA or an NDA company;
(b) the lessee is the NDA or an NDA company;
(c) the lessee is carrying on exempt activities; and
(d) the machinery or plant to which the lease relates is used by the lessee for the purposes of those activities.
(2) No allowance under Part 2 of the Capital Allowances Act 2001 (c. 2) (plant and machinery allowances) shall be available to the lessor in respect of qualifying expenditure on the provision of the plant or machinery for leasing under the lease.
(3) Expressions used in this paragraph and in Chapter 17 of Part 2 of the Capital Allowances Act 2001 (anti-avoidance provisions relating to plant and machinery allowances) have the same meanings in this paragraph as in that Chapter.

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.
