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

405 Carry back and forward of relief for interest on loans within section 403

(1) This section applies if relief for any interest on a loan within section 403(1) that is eligible for relief cannot be given for the tax year in which the interest is paid because there is not enough income in that year. (2) The person paying the interest is entitled to relief for that interest— (a) for the preceding tax year, or (b) if there is not enough income in that year, for the tax year preceding it, and so on. (3) If relief cannot be given under subsection (2), it may instead be given— (a) for the tax year following that in which the interest is paid, or (b) if there is not enough income in that year, for the tax year following it, and so on.

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.
