Resolved, That for the purposes of any Act of the present Session to declare charitable under the law of England and Wales the provision in the interests of social welfare of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation, to make similar provision as to certain trusts heretofore established for carrying out social welfare activities within the meaning of the Miners' Welfare Act, 1952, to enable laws for corresponding purposes to be passed by the Parliament of Northern Ireland, and for purposes connected therewith, it is expedient to authorise any incidental charge to income tax which that Act may impose on persons making payments to trusts of any description which is, in England and Wales, to be treated as charitable under that Act (including any such charge for a past year of assessment).—[The Attorney-General.]
