Cabinet cannot remove XR tax benefit, despite House of Representatives' wishes

The House had called on the cabinet to revoke the ANBI status, so that the action group would no longer be able to benefit from tax advantages for charities.

Extinction Rebellion (XR) is retaining its tax benefit on donations, against the wishes of a majority in the House of Representatives.

Extinction Rebellion (XR) continues to benefit from tax breaks, despite a motion passed by the House of Representatives to put an end to this. State Secretary Van Oostenbruggen (Finance) has announced that it is not legally possible to revoke the climate action group's special tax status.
