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.

As published

925F Interpretation of the repo sections

(1) This section applies for the purposes of sections 925A to 925E and this section. (2) “Arrangement” includes any agreement or understanding (whether or not legally enforceable). (3) It does not matter whether or not provision of any arrangement conferring a right or imposing an obligation on any person to buy any securities is subject to any conditions.

(5) Securities are similar if they give their holders— (a) the same rights against the same persons as to capital, interest and dividends, and (b) the same remedies to enforce those rights. (6) Subsection (5) applies even if there is a difference in— (a) the total nominal amounts of the securities, (b) the form in which they are held, or (c) the manner in which they can be transferred. (7) If— (a) a person (“A”) buys securities (or has a right or obligation to buy securities), but (b) the securities are (or are to be) held for the benefit of another person (“B”), B (not A) is treated as buying (or having the right or obligation to buy) the securities. (8) If— (a) a person (“C”) sells securities, but (b) the proceeds of the sale are held for the benefit of another person (“D”), D (not C) is treated as selling the securities.

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.
