BILL NUMBER:S1132 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the tax law, in relation to rebates on stock transfer tax paid GENERAL PURPOSE OF BILL: Since at least 1915, New York has imposed a tax on the sale of securities. Nonetheless, the securities industry flourished in the State. The State began rebating the tax in 1979 so that it is now 100% rebated back to the industry. As explained below, the 100% rebate is no longer justifiable. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 of the bill amends subdivision 1 of section 280-a of the tax law, as amended by chapter 578 of the laws of 1981, by providing for a rebate of 60% of the tax collected. Accordingly, $6.9 billion in revenue would be raised. Section 2 of the bill sets forth an immediate effective date. JUSTIFICATION:
