985.35.6. A registered museum may, with the Minister’s approval in writing, accumulate property for a particular purpose, on such terms and conditions, and over such period of time, as specified in the approval.
Property accumulated in accordance with the first paragraph, including the income related to that property, is deemed to have been expended on museum activities carried on by the registered museum in the taxation year in which the property was so accumulated and not to have been expended in another taxation year.
However, if property accumulated by a registered museum in accordance with the first paragraph, including the income related to that property, is not used for the particular purpose referred to in that paragraph before the expiration of the period referred to in that paragraph or at an earlier time at which the museum decided not to use the property for that purpose, it is deemed to be the eligible amount of a gift for which the museum issued a receipt described in section 712 or 752.0.10.3 in its taxation year in which that period expired or that decision was made.
