GIFT AID AND INDEPENDENT MUSEUMS

That this House values the important educational and cultural roles of heritage and conservation charities, many of which are independent museums; recognises that the existence and development of such bodies relies not only on the efforts of volunteers but also on admission charges; welcomes the vital financial assistance which Gift Aid has given tho them; is concerned that there are proposals to remove the Gift Aid provision on admission charges; and urges the Government to continue to allow these charities to benefit from Gift Aid without restriction to the existing conditions.
