A BILL

TO AMEND THE CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, BY REDESIGNATING SECTION 12-4-780, RELATING TO ACCEPTANCE BY THE DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE OF PAYMENT OF TAXES BY CREDIT CARD, TO SECTION 12-4-395, SO AS TO CORRECTLY REFLECT IT AS A GENERAL POWER OF THE DEPARTMENT.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

SECTION    1.    Section 12-4-780 of the 1976 Code, as added by Act 399 of 2000, is redesignated as follows:

"Section 12-4-395.    The department may accept, on terms and conditions it establishes, payments to it by credit cards. This authority includes a determination not to accept credit card payments or to accept credit card payments only for certain classes of payments as specified by the department. Notwithstanding another provision of law, the State Treasurer may enter into contracts on behalf of the department by which the department may accept credit card payments. The department may withhold the actual cost of processing credit card payments from deposits of the payments and may treat these withholdings as reimbursements of the associated expenditures."

SECTION    2.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

----XX----
