    1    Section  1.  Paragraph (e) of subdivision 12 of section 210 of the tax

    3  1999, is amended to read as follows:
    4    (e) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the credit allowed

    6  for such year to less than the higher of the amounts prescribed in para-
    7  graphs  (c)  and (d) of subdivision one of this section. However, if the
    8  amount of credit allowable under this subdivision for any  taxable  year
    9  reduces the tax to such amount, any amount of credit allowed for a taxa-
   10  ble year commencing prior to January first, nineteen hundred eighty-sev-
   11  en  and  not  deductible in such taxable year may be carried over to the
   12  following year or years and may be deducted from the taxpayer's tax  for
   13  such  year or years but in no event shall such credit be carried over to
   14  taxable years commencing on or after January first,  two  thousand  two,
   15  and  any  amount  of  credit allowed for a taxable year commencing on or
   16  after January first, nineteen hundred eighty-seven and not deductible in
   17  such year may be carried over to the fifteen taxable years next  follow-
   18  ing  such  taxable  year and may be deducted from the taxpayer's tax for
   19  such year or years. In lieu of such carryover, any such  taxpayer  which
   20  qualifies  as a new business under paragraph (j) of this subdivision AND
   21  ANY SUCH TAXPAYER ALLOWED A CREDIT UNDER CLAUSE (C) OF SUBPARAGRAPH  (I)

    1  FEDERAL FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION AND THE CONDUCT OF CLINICAL  TRIALS
    2  TO  OBTAIN SUCH APPROVAL may elect to treat the amount of such carryover
    3  as an overpayment of tax to be credited or refunded in  accordance  with
    4  the  provisions of section [ten hundred] ONE THOUSAND eighty-six of this
    5  chapter, provided, however, the provisions of subsection (c) of  section
    6  [ten hundred] ONE THOUSAND eighty-eight of this chapter notwithstanding,
    7  no interest shall be paid thereon.
    8    S  2.  Paragraph 5 of subsection (a) of section 606 of the tax law, as
    9  amended by chapter 170 of the laws  of  1994,  is  amended  to  read  as
   10  follows:
   11    (5)  If  the  amount of credit allowable under this subsection for any
   12  taxable year shall exceed the taxpayer's tax for such year,  the  excess
   13  allowed  for  a taxable year commencing prior to January first, nineteen
   14  hundred eighty-seven may be carried over to the following year or  years
   15  and  may be deducted from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years, but
   16  in no event shall such credit be carried over to taxable years  commenc-
   17  ing  on  or  after January first, nineteen hundred ninety-seven, and any
   18  amount of credit allowed for a taxable year commencing on or after Janu-
   19  ary first, nineteen hundred eighty-seven and not deductible in such year
   20  may be carried over to the ten taxable years next following such taxable
   21  year and may be deducted from the taxpayer's tax for such year or years.
   22  In lieu of carrying over any such excess, a taxpayer who qualifies as an
   23  owner of a new business for purposes of paragraph ten of this subsection
   24  OR WHO QUALIFIES AS AN OWNER OF A BUSINESS THAT CONDUCTS BASIC,  APPLIED
   25  OR TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH THAT LEADS TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTS THAT
   26  IMPROVE  HUMAN  HEALTH  OR  AGRICULTURE AND THAT REQUIRE APPROVAL BY THE
   27  FEDERAL FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION AND THE CONDUCT OF CLINICAL  TRIALS
   28  TO  OBTAIN  SUCH  APPROVAL  may, at his option, receive such excess as a
   29  refund. Any refund paid pursuant to this paragraph shall be deemed to be
   30  a refund of an overpayment of tax as provided  in  section  six  hundred
   31  eighty-six of this article, provided, however, that no interest shall be
   32  paid thereon.
   33    S  3. This act shall take effect on the first of January next succeed-
   34  ing the date on which it shall have become a law.
