other existing statutes and establishes a provision to cover
registration of property in the State when the owner made actual
use of the property outside the State but was not required under
the laws of that state to register it for that use.

 
15. It clarifies a statute requiring payment of use tax at
the time of registration on property required to be registered
for use in this State with the Secretary of State or the
Commissioner of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife.

 
16. It deletes unnecessary and ineffective provisions
relating to bankruptcy.

 
17. It repeals a provision relating to priority of taxes that
is being relocated to the uniform administrative provisions of
Title 36. This provision is inappropriately located in the sales
and use tax law since it applies to any tax. The section also
repeals unnecessary and ineffective provisions relating to
bankruptcy.

 
18. It amends the sales tax refund statute to provide for a
refund in situations where a retailer has erroneously computed
and paid the tax but did not collect the tax from the customer.
The change establishes a specific statutory basis for current
agency practice. The section also eliminates gender-specific
language and makes other grammatical changes.

 
19. It amends a cross-reference to federal regulations in the
definition of "mobile telecommunications services" to make it
consistent with federal law.

 
20. It defines "nonprofit" for purposes of the service
provider tax law.

 
21. It describes more precisely certain acts designated as
crimes under the service provider tax law.

 
22. It clarifies that certain sales of fabrication services
for incorporation into real property of an exempt entity are not
subject to the service provider tax.

 
23. It repeals a redundant criminal statute in the motor fuel
tax laws.

 
24. It adds special fuel tax, interest and penalties owed by
retailers of low-energy fuels to the list of tax debts designated
as personal and recoverable by civil action and repeals
unnecessary and ineffective provisions relating to bankruptcy.
