Propose a change

Income Tax Act 2007

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.

122 Meaning of “the applicable amount of the loss”

(1) This section defines “the applicable amount of the loss” for the purposes of sections 120 and 121. (2) “The applicable amount of the loss” is— (a) the amount of the loss, or (b) if less, the amount arising from the relevant connection (see subsections (3) to (5)). (3) If— (a) the loss has a capital allowances connection, but (b) the business does not have a relevant agricultural connection, the amount arising from the relevant connection is the amount (“the net capital allowances”) by which the capital allowances exceed the charges under CAA 2001. (4) If— (a) the business has a relevant agricultural connection, but (b) the loss does not have a capital allowances connection, the amount arising from the relevant connection is the amount of the allowable agricultural expenses. (5) If— (a) the loss has a capital allowances connection, and (b) the business has a relevant agricultural connection, the amount arising from the relevant connection is the sum of the net capital allowances and the amount of the allowable agricultural expenses.

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.
