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

958 Payer's duty to deliver amended return

(1) This section applies if a person who has made a section 946 payment becomes aware that— (a) anything which should have been included in a return delivered by the person under this Chapter has not been so included, (b) anything which should not have been included in a return delivered by the person under this Chapter has been so included, or (c) any other error has occurred in a return delivered by the person under this Chapter. (2) The person must deliver an amended return correcting the error to an officer of Revenue and Customs without delay. (3) If the person delivers an amended return such assessments, adjustments, set-offs or payments or repayments of income tax as are necessary for achieving the objective mentioned in subsection (4) must be made. (4) The objective is that the resulting liabilities to income tax (including interest on unpaid or overpaid income tax) of the person or any other person are the same as they would have been if a correct return had been delivered.

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.
