–Three possible scenarios in determining “can reasonably
be considered”
§Written
designation to use the gift for the political
activities of the QD
§Written
designation to not use the gift for the political
activities of the QD
§No written
designation, then look at other circumstances
to see if there was “a purpose”
–Likely best to avoid multi-purpose
gifts, because Budget 2012 simply
refers to “a purpose” so any political
purpose for any part of the gift may taint the whole gift
