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.

What to do with it
As published

342 Period of accreditation

(1) An accreditation has effect for a period (an “accreditation period”) of 3 years beginning on the day specified in the accreditation. (2) Subject to subsection (4), the accreditation must not specify a day which is earlier than— (a) if the body is not accredited under this Chapter at the time the application is made, the day the accreditation is granted, and (b) if the body is so accredited, the time the body's current accreditation expires. (3) Subsection (4) applies if— (a) the body is accredited at the time the application is made, and (b) it makes a request under this subsection. (4) The new accreditation may specify that the existing accreditation is to be treated for the purposes of this Part (including subsection (2)(b)) as expiring immediately before the grant of the new accreditation (if it would otherwise expire at a later time). (5) This section has effect subject to section 341(3)(b) (power to provide for the withdrawal of accreditation).

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.
