Propose a change

Finance Act 1994

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

36 Security for payment of duty.

(1) The Commissioners may require— (a) any operator of an aircraft who is or is liable to be registered, or (b) any fiscal representative, to provide such security, or further security, as they may think appropriate for the payment of any duty which is or may become due from the operator. (2) Any failure by a person to provide any security which he is required by the Commissioners to provide under subsection (1) above shall attract a penalty under section 9 above. (3) For the purposes of this section, a person shall not be treated as having been required to provide security under subsection (1) above unless the Commissioners have either— (a) served notice of the requirement on him, or (b) taken all such other steps as appear to them to be reasonable for bringing the requirement to his attention.

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.
