Institute of Public Policy and Research

HL Deb 11 October 1999 vol 605 cc62-3WA

Baroness Blatch

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How much tax relief has been given on covenanted monies to the Institute of Public Policy and Research. [HL3999]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

The Institute for Public Policy Research is a registered charity. As such, it is exempt from tax on its charitable activities and can claim tax relief on its charitable donations, including those made by deed of covenant. Donors may also claim further relief where they are eligible. Because of taxpayer confidentiality, I cannot disclose the amount of relief given.
