Finance Act 1986
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
95A Depositary receipts: exception for replacement securities.
(1) There shall be no charge to tax under section 93 above in respect of the transfer ... or appropriation of chargeable securities (“the new securities”) issued by a company in place of existing securities of the same company (“the old securities”) if the following conditions are met. (2) The first condition is that the old securities are held under a depositary receipt scheme. (3) The second condition is that— (a) there was a charge to tax under section 93 above in respect of the transfer ... or appropriation— (i) of the old securities, or (ii) of earlier securities in relation to which on a previous application of this section those securities were the new securities, or there would have been such a charge if that section had been in force; or (b) there would have been such a charge but for section 95(2) ... above. (4) The third condition is that there is an arrangement under which— (a) the new securities are transferred ... or appropriated as mentioned in section 93(1)(b), and (b) the old securities are cancelled. (5) For the purposes of subsection (2) above the cases in which securities are held under a depositary receipt scheme are those specified (in relation to shares) in section 95(5) above. (6) The exception provided by this section applies only to the extent that the value of the new securities immediately after their issue does not exceed the value of the old securities immediately before the issue of the new securities.

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.

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.
