 Dear Clerks James and Hurley and Chairs Michlewitz, Rodrigues, Cusack and Hinds,
The Tax Expenditure Review Commission is required to report on its review of tax
expenditures as established in Chapter 207 of the Acts of 2018. The report is due
biennially on March 1.
Due to the delay with reconvening the Commission due to the COVID-19 pandemic
and a shift to remote meeting and working processes, the Commission is not yet able
to provide the legislature with a complete report. We are currently in the process of
finalizing the report on our examination and evaluation of the administration,
effectiveness, and fiscal impact of tax expenditures. We anticipate providing the
legislature with the biennial report within the month of March.
If you require further information please contact Nathalie Dailida, Legislative and
External Affairs Director, Department of Revenue at 617-626-2175 or
dailidan@dor.state.ma.us.
Sincerely,
Geoffrey E. Snyder
Commissioner
