Consistency on the electoral roll ?

I would really really like to understand how such an arrangement would not be an AST: £5 to an agreed housing charity if there's a valid way for someone occupying the property & paying rent over AST minimum would not be an AST in the circumstances described, albeit the paperwork might say something else.
I look forward to a response & paying up!0
