HC Deb 22 January 1986 vol 90 c196W
Mr. Andrew F. Bennett

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what has been the total cost to the Exchequer of covenanting for educational purposes in the first five financial years for which data is available; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Moore

I assume the hon. Member has in mind the cost of tax repayments on covenant payments to charities with an educational purpose. However, it is not possible to distinguish educational charities from other charities.
