Memorandum from Children in Crisis
I am writing to you as Trustee & Treasurer
of CHILDREN IN CRISIS, a Britishbut global in scope charityhelping
forgotten children everywhere gain education and safer life.
Perhaps we would be the last people you would
expect to hear from when evaluating the benefits of "non-dom"
taxation but unfortunately we (and I am sure our colleagues) have
already been affected by the proposed new legislation.
We have been receiving not insubstantial help
from various individuals and organizations controlled by them
who are going to be affected by the changes of their tax status.
Already it was made known to us that future
giving will be both dependent on whether they remain in the UK
and when they do will be "shortened" by monies extracted
by the tax authorities.
Perhaps you could give it some thought.
