NEW YORK STATE ASSEMBLY
MEMORANDUM IN SUPPORT OF LEGISLATION
 submitted in accordance with Assembly Rule III, Sec 1(f)




 
BILL NUMBER: A6517
 
SPONSOR: Brown K

 
TITLE OF BILL:
 
An act directing the division of criminal justice services to expand the
crimes against revenue program to all counties within the state
 
 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
 
Expands the Crimes Against Revenue Program (CARP) to all counties
throughout the state.
 
 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:
 
Section 1: Directs the Division of Criminal Justice Services to include
all counties in the Crimes Against Revenue Program.
 
Section 2: Provides the effective date.
 
 
JUSTIFICATION:

The Crimes Against Revenue Program (CARP) was established in 2004 to
provide District Attorneys with the means to investigate and prosecute
tax evasion and other financial crimes such within their jurisdictions.
CARP has proven to be a self-sustaining program and has resulted in
increased revenue for the state. Within the first six years of its
establishment, DCJS invested 26.7 million dollars which resulted in 84.2
million dollars of revenue.
 
While initially only the 13 counties with the highest income tax reven-
ues received funding from CARP, the program has slowly been expanding to
other counties. This bill will expand CARP to all counties throughout
the state and allow District Attorneys to be better equipped to tackle
tax evasion and other financial crimes within their jurisdictions.
