VAT On Building Work At Charitable Properties
EDM number 45 in 2000-01, proposed by John D Taylor on 06/12/2000.
That this House recognises the work of the 1,800 almshouse charities in the United Kingdom and their provision of some 32,000 homes for mainly older people and those in social need; realises that almshouse charities depend upon permanent endowment income; deplores the burden of VAT on repairs and improvements to properties provided by charities to house those in need; and calls upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer to introduce the exemption of VAT on repairs and improvements to properties owned by these charities.
This motion has been signed by a total of 60 MPs.
