EC Grants and Loans: Taxation

Volume 459: debated on Thursday 26 April 2007

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether campaigning organisations and think tanks that receive EU funding pay tax on such funding. (133545)

There are no special tax rules which apply to campaigning organisations and think tanks. Where a grant, including a grant from the EU, is given to a non-trading body, then generally no tax liability will arise.
