Propose a change

Finance Act 2005

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.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

31 UK resident vulnerable persons: amount of relief

(1) Special capital gains tax treatment applies for the tax year in accordance with this section if the vulnerable person is UK resident for the tax year. (2) The trustees' liability to capital gains tax for the tax year is to be reduced by an amount equal to— TQTG-VQTG where— TQTG is the amount of capital gains tax to which the trustees would (apart from this Chapter) be liable for the tax year in respect of the qualifying trust gains, and VQTG is the amount arrived at under subsection (3). (3) That amount is— TLVA-TLVB where— TLVB is the total amount of capital gains tax to which the vulnerable person is liable for the tax year, and TL VA is what TLVB would be if the qualifying trust gains accrued to the vulnerable person (instead of to the trustees) and no allowable losses were deducted from the qualifying trust gains.

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.
