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

680 Interest on securities involving accrued income losses: foreign trustees

(1) This section applies if— (a) the trustees of a settlement are non-UK resident ... throughout a tax year in which an interest period or part of an interest period of securities falls, (b) the trustees' income is or includes interest from those securities, (c) the interest falls due at the end of that interest period, and (d) had the trustees been UK resident ... during a part of each such tax year the interest would have been wholly or partly exempt from income tax under section 679. (2) No liability to income tax arises as a result of Chapter 5 of Part 5 of ITTOIA 2005 (settlements: amounts treated as income of settlor) in respect of so much of the interest as would have been exempt from income tax under section 679. (3) For cases where the interest period does not end with an interest payment day, see section 637 (accrued income losses treated as payments in next interest period).

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.
