OK 6C: MACA research and development tax credit
or “Māori authorities can receive a credit for research and development tax credits”
You could also call this:

“Outdated rule about special dividends with tax credits”

This section of the law is no longer in effect. It was about a type of dividend called an ‘MACA dividend’ that came with something called an ‘FDP credit’. The government removed this rule on 1 April 2017, so it doesn’t apply anymore. If you need to know about current rules for dividends or tax credits, you should look at other parts of the Income Tax Act 2007 that are still active.
