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

638 Excluded persons: disregard of certain payments and transfers

(1) This section applies if there is a transfer of securities in relation to which a person (“P”) is an excluded transferor or excluded transferee. (2) In determining whether P has made accrued income profits or accrued income losses under section 628 (making accrued income profits and losses: general rule) and the amount of any such profits or losses, no account is to be taken of any payment treated as made by or to P on the transfer. (3) In determining whether P has made accrued income profits under section 630 (making accrued income profits: settlement day outside interest period) and the amount of any such profits, no account is to be taken of the transfer if P is an excluded transferor in relation to it. (4) For the cases where a person is an excluded transferor or excluded transferee in relation to a transfer, see— section 639 (small holdings: individuals), section 640 (small holdings: personal representatives), section 641 (small holdings: trustees of a disabled person's trusts), section 642 (traders), section 643 (non-residents), section 644 (individuals to whom the remittance basis applies), section 645 (charitable trusts etc), section 646 (pension scheme trustees), and section 647 (makers of manufactured payments). (5) Whether a person is an excluded transferee is also relevant to the application of section 681 (exemption for unrealised interest received by transferee after transfer).

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.
