Summary

(1) The Administrative Procedure Act governs the procedure for the adoption, amendment, or repeal of regulations by state agencies and for the review of those regulatory actions by the Office of Administrative Law. This bill would also require state agencies to submit these regulatory actions to the Joint Rules Committee of the Legislature, which would be authorized to submit a regulatory action to the appropriate policy committee in each house for review. The bill would authorize the policy committee to either make recommendations to the agency or to send the action to the floor of either house, which could reject the regulatory action by a resolution, as specified. (2) Existing law provides for the establishment of the California Travel and Tourism Commission as a nonprofit mutual benefit corporation, as specified. This bill would provide for the establishment of 6 regional innovation and job creation boards as nonprofit mutual benefit corporations, to perform certain functions, and would require the Lieutenant Governor to appoint 12 members to each board, as specified. The bill would require that the staff of each board be employees solely of the commission. (3) The Sales and Use Tax Law imposes a tax on retailers measured by the gross receipts from the sale of tangible personal property sold at retail in this state, or on the storage, use, or other consumption in this state of tangible personal property purchased from a retailer for storage, use, or other consumption in this state. That law provides various exemptions from those taxes. On and after January 1, 2013, this bill would exempt from those taxes the sale of, and the storage, use, or other consumption in this state of, tangible personal property, as defined, purchased for use by a qualified person, as defined, primarily in any stage of manufacturing, processing, refining, fabricating, or recycling of tangible personal property, as specified. (4) The Personal Income Tax Law and the Corporation Tax Law allow various credits against the taxes imposed by those laws, including a credit for certain research and development expenses, as provided. This bill would, for taxable years commencing on and after January 1, 2013, increase the credit for research and development expenses, as provided, and would require taxpayers utilizing these credits on or after that date to report specified information to the Franchise Tax Board. This bill would, for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, allow a credit against those taxes for a qualified taxpayer, as defined, of 40% of the amount of a qualified contribution, as defined, made in that taxable year by a business entity to a postsecondary educational institution for curriculum or research leading to job opportunities in the private sector, or consultation services associated with the establishment of curriculum or research leading to job opportunities in the private sector, where the business entity and the postsecondary educational institution agree that there is a substantial potential for the future employment of students as a result of the contribution. (5) This bill would provide that the provisions of this bill are severable. (6) The Bradley-Burns Uniform Local Sales and Use Tax Law authorizes counties and cities to impose local sales and use taxes in conformity with the Sales and Use Tax Law, and existing law authorizes districts, as specified, to impose transactions and use taxes in accordance with the Transactions and Use Tax Law, which conforms to the Sales and Use Tax Law. Exemptions from state sales and use taxes are incorporated into these laws. Section 2230 of the Revenue and Taxation Code provides that the state will reimburse counties and cities for revenue losses caused by the enactment of sales and use tax exemptions. This bill would provide that, notwithstanding Section 2230 of the Revenue and Taxation Code, no appropriation is made and the state shall not reimburse local agencies for sales and use tax revenues lost by them pursuant to this bill.
