New Live Aid DVD to get VAT cash
| New Live Aid DVD to get VAT cashmoney paid on sales of its new DVD and the new version of the 1984 hit Do They Know It's Christmas?
The decision by Chancellor Gordon Brown could hand the charity more than �4m.
Mr Brown said Band Aid's impact had been huge and he wanted to do all he could to help its latest project.
Live Aid founder Bob Geldof called the decision a "remarkable gesture" which would help alleviate the misery of the hungry in Africa.
Top artists
The possible �4m price tag on the VAT refunds are based on the DVD, which is released on Monday, selling 500,000 copies and 1m copies of the new CD.
The new Band Aid 3 version of Do They Know It's Christmas, which comes out next month, features artists such as Sir Paul McCartney, Chris Martin from Coldplay, Robbie Williams, Dido and Ms Dynamite.
Next month marks the 20th anniversary of the Band Aid single
Midge Ure, who masterminded the Do They Know It's Christmas? record in 1984, said: "It's a sad indictment that it's taken 20 years for this to happen again.

The stars are coming thick and fast, with Joss Stone, Travis frontman Fran Healy, Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody and the man who started it all, Bob Geldof, all arriving - most wrapped up to protect against the cold.
But The Darkness' Justin Hawkins swans past the TV cameras with shirt open and chest on show plus leather trousers, only stopping to take part in a photogenic embrace with Geldof.
Inside, Jamelia and Will Young emerge from a smaller studio where they have been recording their two lines. "It took 10 minutes, so it was alright," Jamelia says.

Any music fan can tell you exactly where they were on July 13th, 1985. There had never been a concert event of such magnitude-the biggest names in music performing in a concert broadcast live from 2 continents to an audience of over 1.5 billion. It is estimated that 85% of the world's television sets were tuned in to Live Aid that day. Now, for the first time on home video, you can own the concert that was arguably the biggest rock event in history-featuring David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Madonna, Paul McCartney, Sting, The Who, U2, Neil Young, and many, many more. Over 10 hours of performances in a premium-packaged 4-DVD set. Royalties will benefit Band Aid Trust, which continues to provide direct hunger relief in Africa.

BBC ON THIS DAY | 1985: Live Aid makes millions for Africa
The Live Aid concert for the starving in Africa has raised triple the £10m expected.
And as the London event draws to a close at Wembley Stadium, Britain had contributed £1,100,000 to the global total of £30m.
Described as the Woodstock of the eighties, the world's biggest rock festival was organised by Boomtown Rats singer Bob Geldof to raise money for famine relief in Africa.
Wembley was packed with a crowd of 72,000, but TV pictures, co-ordinated at BBC Television Centre, have been beamed to over 1.5 bn people in 160 countries in the biggest broadcast ever known.
The transatlantic concert began in London's midday sunshine with a fanfare for Prince Charles and Princess Diana and Status Quo performing Rocking All over the World.
Stars were helicoptered into the arena in a line-up that included David Bowie, Wham and royal favourites Dire Straits.
Live Aid finally gets DVD release
Live Aid finally gets DVD release
The 1985 Live Aid concert, one of the defining events in modern music, is to be released on DVD for the first time.
Organisers will auction the rights to release the DVD after pirate copies were found for sale on the internet.
They are hoping to raise "a few million pounds" for charity and are aiming for a Christmas release.
The concert, split between London and Philadelphia, brought together stars including U2, Queen and Madonna - but has never come out on CD, video or DVD.
Organisers have decided to allow the DVD release after realising bootleggers were making money from it - but none was going to charity.

Proceeds from the DVD release will go to the Band Aid Trust, which still exists to relieve poverty and hunger in Ethiopia and the surrounding area.
Bob Geldof "sees it as an asset of the people of Ethiopia" that was not being fully utilised, according to fellow founding Band Aid trustee John Kennedy.
"It's a surprise to all of us that we're still here 20 years on spending and receiving money," he told BBC News Online.
