CHAPTER 486

 
H.P. 1296 - L.D. 1856

 
An Act To Conform the Maine Tax Laws for 2005 to the United

 
States Internal Revenue Code

 
Emergency preamble. Whereas, acts of the Legislature do not become
effective until 90 days after adjournment unless enacted as
emergencies; and

 
Whereas, the processing of the year 2005 income tax returns
would be delayed by waiting for the 90-day period to expire; and

 
Whereas, legislative action is immediately necessary to ensure
continued and efficient administration of the Maine income tax
laws and certain other state taxes; and

 
Whereas, in the judgment of the Legislature, these facts create
an emergency within the meaning of the Constitution of Maine and
require the following legislation as immediately necessary for
the preservation of the public peace, health and safety; now,
therefore,

 
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows:

 
Sec. 1. 36 MRSA §111, sub-§1-A, as amended by PL 2005, c. 12, Pt. P,
§1 and affected by §10, is further amended to read:

 
1-A. Code. "Code" means the United States Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 and amendments to that Code as of January 7, 2005
December 31, 2005.
