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

940 Exception from duty to retain bonds

(1) This section applies if an issue of funding bonds is treated as a payment of interest (“the deemed interest”) as mentioned in section 939(1) and— (a) the person by or through whom the bonds are issued is required to retain bonds under section 939(2), but (b) it is impracticable for the person to do so. (2) The duty to deduct a sum representing income tax from the deemed interest under this Part does not apply if the person tells the Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs— (a) the names and addresses of the persons to whom the bonds have been issued, and (b) the amount of the bonds issued to each person. (3) Accordingly— (a) the duty to retain bonds under section 939(2) does not apply, and (b) the provisions in Chapters 15 and 16 about the collection of income tax in respect of the deemed interest do not apply.

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.
