Section 7-1-84 - Tax expenditure budget
A. No later than November 15 of each year, the secretary shall compile and present a tax expenditure budget to the governor, the revenue stabilization and tax policy committee and the legislative finance committee and post the tax expenditure budget to the department's website.
B. A tax expenditure budget shall include the following information for each tax expenditure of a tax administered by the department:
(1) the statutory basis;
(2) the year of enactment, amendment or repeal, if any;
(3) a brief description;
(4) the intended purpose, if specified in the law providing for the tax expenditure;
(5) an estimate of the amount of foregone revenue by fiscal year for the three fiscal years preceding the current fiscal year, including the general fund, other state funds and local government revenues;
(6) the number of taxpayers that claimed a tax expenditure for each fiscal year reported, unless reporting of such data is in a form that can be associated with or otherwise identify, directly or indirectly, a particular taxpayer;
(7) the data source used for the estimate;
(8) a description of the reliability of the estimate;
(9) an evaluation of the tax expenditure, if required in statute for the specific expenditure; and
(10) a description of the tax expenditure's effect on tax administration, if any.
C. The department may request from an executive agency or a local government agency or official the information necessary to complete a tax expenditure budget required by this section. The agency or official shall comply with a request made pursuant to this section by the department as permitted by law.
D. As used in this section, "tax expenditure" means a provision of law administered by the department to reflect state tax policy, as determined by the secretary, including promoting the general welfare of citizens, giving preferential tax treatment to a specific industry or reflecting a specific purpose, including incentivizing consumer behavior, economic development or job creation. A tax expenditure does not include provisions of laws enacted to prevent violation of state or federal law, prevent federal preemption, ensure comity between governments, avoid multiple taxation or define a tax base.
