The Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer has released a very interesting report entitled “Cost Estimates of Proposed Tax Measures to Encourage Charitable Donations of Assets”.

There are lots of interesting nuggets in the study that go far beyond just the issue of tax incentives for these measures.
