 1                    AMENDMENT TO SENATE BILL 810

 2        AMENDMENT NO.     .  Amend Senate Bill 810  by  replacing
 3    the title with the following:
 4        "AN  ACT  to  amend the Illinois Income Tax Act by adding
 5    Section 210.5."; and

 6    by replacing everything after the enacting  clause  with  the
 7    following:

 8        "Section  5.  The  Illinois  Income Tax Act is amended by
 9    adding Section 210.5 as follows:

10        (35 ILCS 5/210.5 new)
11        Sec. 210.5.  Tax credit for employee child care.
12        (a)  Each corporate taxpayer  is  entitled  to  a  credit
13    against the tax imposed by subsections (a) and (b) of Section
14    201  in an amount equal to (i) for taxable years ending on or
15    after December 31, 2000 and on or before December  31,  2004,
16    30%  of the start-up costs expended by the corporate taxpayer
17    to provide a child care facility  for  the  children  of  its
18    employees  and  (ii)  for  taxable  years  ending on or after
19    December 31, 2000, 5%  of  the  annual  amount  paid  by  the
20    corporate  taxpayer  in providing the child care facility for
21    the children of its employees.  The provisions of Section 250
 
                            -2-            LRB9106010SMdvam03
 1    do not apply to  the  5%  credit  under  item  (ii)  of  this
 2    subsection.   If  the 5% credit authorized under item (ii) of
 3    this subsection is claimed, the 5%  credit  authorized  under
 4    Section 210 cannot also be claimed.
 5        To  receive the tax credit under this Section a corporate
 6    taxpayer may either independently provide and operate a child
 7    care facility for the children of its  employees  or  it  may
 8    join  in a partnership with one or more other corporations to
 9    jointly provide and operate a child  care  facility  for  the
10    children of employees of the corporations in the partnership.
11        (b)  The   tax  credit  may  not  reduce  the  taxpayer's
12    liability to less than zero.  If the amount of the tax credit
13    exceeds the tax liability for the year,  the  excess  may  be
14    carried  forward  and  applied  to the tax liability of the 5
15    taxable years following the excess credit year.   The  credit
16    must be applied to the earliest year for which there is a tax
17    liability.   If there are credits from more than one tax year
18    that are available to offset a liability,  then  the  earlier
19    credit must be applied first.
20        (c)  As  used  in  this  Section,  "start-up costs" means
21    planning,  site-preparation,  construction,  renovation,   or
22    acquisition of a child care facility.
23        (d)  A corporate taxpayer claiming the credit provided by
24    this  Section  shall  maintain and record such information as
25    the Department may require by rule regarding the  child  care
26    facility for which the credit is claimed.

27        Section  99.  Effective date.  This Act takes effect upon
28    becoming law.".
