Corporation Tax Act 2010

Section 508: Donors: exceptions

1551.This section specifies exceptions to the donors caught by section 502. It is based on section 506B(8) and (9) of ICTA. The corresponding rule for income tax is in section 555 of ITA.

1552.Subsection (1) concerns companies set up by charitable companies, for example to carry on trading activities as a means of generating funds.

1553.Subsection (2) concerns registered social landlords and housing associations, which often share services and accommodation with charities as a means of meeting charitable and non-charitable objectives. Section 506B(9) of ICTA is prospectively amended by paragraph 15 of Schedule 9 to the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 from a day to be appointed by Order (section 325(1) of that Act). This subsection incorporates that amendment with a saving in Schedule 2 to this Act to apply until the amendment made by paragraph 15 has effect.
