Morano asks about compliance verification before granting amnesty
Morano asks how DOF will verify corrections before granting financial benefits and whether someone could receive the discount first and fail to correct afterward. Lee confirms the issuing agency certifies compliance and that compliance must occur before amnesty is granted.
I was very pleased to see in your testimony that violations requiring correction actually have to be resolved.
I think that's an important safeguard, and I'm glad that it's in there.
How will the Department of Finance verify the correction before granting the financial benefit?
Are you relying on the issuing agency to certify the compliance, or is there something else?
Yes, it is the issuing agency that we'll be working with in terms of compliance.
And it is a program you have to...
Comply in order to receive the program.
So it is a specific thing that we have.
So could you have a situation, and it sounds like the answer is no, but I just want to be clear, where somebody receives the discount first and
and then fails to complete the correction afterward, or must compliance occur before the amnesty is granted?
Yes, the answer is no.
They have to comply first.
Gotcha.
