Propose a change

Finance Act 2020

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

55 Duty to notify HMRC of change in relevant information

(2) If at any relevant time there is a change in relevant information relating to the group, the responsible member must notify HMRC of that change. (3) The notification must be given in the specified way. (4) The notification must be given before the end of the period of 90 days beginning with the day on which the change occurs. (5) In subsection (3) “specified” means specified in a notice published by HMRC. (6) In this section— “relevant information” means information of a kind specified under section 54(2); “relevant time” means any time— after the time when the information is provided under section 54 or (if earlier) the last time by which the information may be provided in accordance with that section, and before the giving of a direction under section 56 in relation to the group.

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.
