The bill amends the Tax Reform Code of 1971, specifically Section 1908-B, to enhance the confidentiality provisions related to neighborhood improvement zones. It allows the contracting authority and local taxing authorities access to reports and certifications filed by qualified businesses within these zones. Notably, the bill includes new legal language that permits access to taxpayer identification numbers and other state or local tax information for the purpose of documenting required certifications and determining allocated amounts for specified uses.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that independent auditing firms hired under section 1904-B(h) will also have access to the same tax information, including taxpayer identification numbers, solely for conducting required audits. This amendment aims to ensure that necessary tax information is available for compliance and auditing purposes while maintaining strict prohibitions on any other use of the information. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
