CZ 18: Benefit provider approved within 6 months of 25 November 2003
or “Approval for benefit providers within six months of November 2003”
You could also call this:

“Income tax exemption for certain community trust receipts in 2004-05 or 2005-06”

If you’re a trustee or company, you might have some income that you don’t have to pay tax on. This is called exempt income. You can get this special treatment if you meet two conditions.

First, your income would normally be tax-free under the rules for charities. But you might have given money or property to a community trust when you were closing down your trust or company in the 2004-05 or 2005-06 tax year. Even though you did this, your income can still be tax-free.

Second, you need to meet one of these two requirements: either the community trust gave you the main part of your trust’s property, or the community trust owns all of your company.

If you meet both of these conditions, then your income is exempt, which means you don’t have to pay tax on it.
