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

564E Deposit arrangements

(1) This section applies to arrangements if under them— (a) a person (“the depositor”) deposits money with a financial institution, (b) the money, together with money deposited with the institution by other persons, is used by it with a view to producing a profit, (c) from time to time the institution makes or credits a payment to the depositor out of profit resulting from the use of the money, (d) the payment is in proportion to the amount deposited by the depositor, and (e) the payments so made or credited by the institution equate, in substance, to the return on an investment of money at interest. (2) This section is subject to section 564H (provision not at arm's length: exclusion of arrangements from sections 564C and 564D, this section and sections 564F and 564G).

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.
