Benjamin E. Parker", "committee": "Ways and Means", "vote_yeas": 15, "vote_nays": 2, "text": "This bill was introduced in the Commerce Committee, who then recommended it to the House. The House passed the bill and referred it to the Ways and Means Committee. The bill as introduced to the Ways and Means Committee reduced the premium tax for property and casualty and life insurance from 2 percent to 1 percent upon sixty days after passage. The committee amendment changes the premium tax to 1.75 percent effective July 1, 2007, then 1.5 percent effective January 1, 2009, then 1.25 percent effective January 1, 2010 and finally 1 percent effective January 1, 2011. As amended, the static fiscal impact for FY08 would be a 2.4 million revenue reduction; FY09, $4.2 million reduction; FY10, $9.1 million reduction; FY11, $11.1 million reduction and FY12, $13.4 million reduction. No consideration is given to an increase in the business profits tax resulting from reduced premium tax credits. With the policy set by the Commerce Committee and approved by the House, the committee analyzed the dynamics of the change in the premium tax and worked to mitigate the revenue impact of the change. The committee noted anecdotal evidence of insurance companies re-domesticating to low premium tax states, but found empirical evidence that total insurance related employment on average increased in low premium tax states relative to higher premium tax states. Representatives from specific insurance companies provided assurances that the rate reduction as proposed in this bill as amended would, in one instance, result in retention of a large New Hampshire company currently planning to re-domesticate in another state and, in other instances, result in expansion of existing operations. Though re-domestication to or from another state does not mean an immediate shift in jobs, evidence showed that jobs do migrate over time to the new home state. No consideration is given in the above revenue impact to re-domestication of insurance companies to New Hampshire. The committee found that insurance company corporate offices support a wide range of employment opportunities including a large number of relatively well-paying jobs that required a high level of education. Further, these jobs are the type New Hampshire both seeks to retain and is well suited to attract. Testimony showed that additional insurance industry jobs would have a positive effect on both local and state revenues. The amendment to this bill phases in the premium tax reduction beginning with the next biennium budget. This ensures that estimates for the current budget are not affected, it sends the appropriate signal to the insurance industry and allows lead-time for response, and if industry response is not appropriate over the next few years, allows reconsideration of the reduction before the rate is reduced to 1 percent. While the committee believes state revenues will be adversely affected at today's values whether the premium tax rate is changed or not, on balance, the majority of the committee believes that this bill as amended results in a greater net benefit to future state revenues and State's economic outlook."}, {"side": "Committee", "author": "Rep.

These are the sums that we would have collected under the existing premium tax, but will not collect if this passes. These are the sums that would have gone to paying for the increased costs of the services we now provide the citizenry, increased by inflation in staff wages and health, fuel, and other costs.

The general court finds that over the last decade the state has witnessed a significant loss of insurance companies that were domesticated in New Hampshire. The loss of a domestic insurance company to another state takes revenue and jobs from the state and impacts the overall welfare of the general public by the absence of a corporate good citizen no longer available to participate in good works in the communities of New Hampshire. A tool that may be used to retain current domestic insurers and recruit other companies is a reduction in the premium tax rate. A reduction in the premium tax rate will be an effective way to spur economic development and reverse recent losses of domestic insurers. Such a reduction will stimulate growth in financial services and other sectors in New Hampshire. States that have lowered their insurance premium taxes have experienced significant economic gain as many insurers have moved to incorporate in those states. Those states that lowered their insurance premium tax rates have found that investment by insurers in the form of new employment, acquisition of property, and consumption of services have stimulated economic growth. By reducing the insurance premium tax, New Hampshire will give itself a competitive advantage over other eastern states with higher rates. The general court finds that the economic development stimulated by a reduction in the insurance premium tax rate in New Hampshire will be of great benefit to the state.\n\n277:2 Insurance; Premium Tax Decreased. Amend RSA 400-A:32, I to read as follows:\n\nI. (a) Every insurer shall pay to the insurance commissioner a tax [ of 2 percent] upon such net premiums, for lines of business written, as set forth in the report filed pursuant to RSA 400-A:31, I, less estimated payments made in accordance with RSA 400-A:32, II[;], as follows:\n\n(1) Effective July 1, 2007, a tax of 1.75 percent for all lines of business written pursuant to RSA 401:1, I-III and V-VIII, and RSA 401:1-a, I and II;\n\n(2) Effective January 1, 2009, a tax of 1.50 percent for all lines of business written pursuant to RSA 401:1, I-III and V-VIII, and RSA 401:1-a, I and II;\n\n(3) Effective January 1, 2010, a tax of 1.25 percent for all lines of business written pursuant to RSA 401:1, I-III and V-VIII, and RSA 401:1-a, I and II; and\n\n(4) Effective January 1, 2011, a tax of one percent for all lines of business written pursuant to RSA 401:1, I-III and V-VIII, and RSA 401:1-a, I and II.\n\n(5) A tax of 2 percent for all lines of business written pursuant to RSA 401:1, IV, including, but not limited to, insurers licensed pursuant to RSA 420-A, RSA 420-B, and RSA 420-F.\n\n(b) Provided, however, that every authorized insurer shall pay to the insurance commissioner a minimum annual premium tax of no less than $200.\n\n277:3 Insurance Premium Tax; Collection. Amend RSA 400-A:32, II to read as follows:\n\nII. (a) For the calendar year ending December 31, 2006, on or before March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 [ of each year], every authorized insurer required to pay a tax in accordance with RSA 400-A:32, I shall pay to the insurance commissioner an amount equal to 1/4 of the previous calendar year's tax paid pursuant to said paragraph; provided, however, any authorized insurer having an estimated liability of $100 or less for each quarter shall make payment in full on March 15. These payments shall be considered as a partial payment of the tax upon the business done in the state during the calendar year in which the payment was received.\n\n(b) For the calendar year ending December 31, 2007, and for every year thereafter, on or before March 15 of each year every authorized insurer required to pay a tax in accordance with RSA 400-A:32, I shall make payment in full to the insurance commissioner of an amount equal to 100 percent of the previous calendar year's taxes paid pursuant to said paragraph. The payments shall be considered as a partial payment of the tax upon the business done in the state during the calendar year in which the payment was received.\n\n277:4 Insurer Retention Plan; Reporting.\n\nI. The insurance commissioner and the commissioner of the department of resources and economic development shall mutually develop and implement a comprehensive plan to retain domestic insurers and recruit foreign insurers to redomesticate in New Hampshire with the goal of retaining and creating jobs and the economic activity associated therewith. The plan shall be jointly filed with the fiscal committee of the general court on or before September 30, 2006.\n\nII. The insurance commissioner and the commissioner of the department of resources and economic development shall jointly file a report detailing the results of the implementation of their filed plan, including information on the number of redomestications and new jobs associated therewith with the fiscal committee of the general court on or before July 1, 2007, and every month thereafter, until such time as the fiscal committee shall certify that there is no longer a need to file such report.\n\n277:5 Effective Date.
