The document explains that while the previous practice allowed for the entire net proceeds to be given to charities during the war, the current policy requires racing associations to include the proceeds in their gross income but allows for deductions for contributions to charitable organizations. The reasoning for this change is explained to be due to the end of the war emergency.
