Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


The stated purpose of this bill is to clarify when certain penalties are to be imposed, and to further define when the registration of tax shelters and tax shelter investor lists are to be filed with the Tax Commissioner. According to our interpretation that this bill provides additional clarification of when previously codified penalties apply and provides additional clarification of the tax shelter and tax shelter investor list filing requirement, passage of this would only have a minimal impact on revenue. Additional administrative costs to the State Tax Department associated with this bill would be minimal.
