	Nov 18/98 Point of Order Responses (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		In fact, the bills cited in May that were not exempted from the financial procedures and therefore required a ways and means motion failed to meet the criteria because they were not for an industry purpose or the funds became part of government revenue.
		Bill S-13 expressly provides that the foundation is established for the industry and that the purpose of the bill is to meet the industry's objective.
		A levy was placed on the sale of audio tapes and the proceeds of the levy were directed to go to a board, not for the improvement of the audio tape industry but for the benefit of music composers.

	County Executive
		The bill differs from a Republican-sponsored measure introduced last week that fails to identify corresponding budget cuts as an offset to the loss of $10 million of revenue from the tax to the county.
		Levy stressed that simply reducing the revenue without having a corresponding cut in budget line items will either create a gaping deficit as resulted from the policies of Nassau County in the 1990s bringing it to the brink of bankruptcy -- or will result in a massive property tax increase.
		The Executive's version of this bill cuts the residential energy tax, maintains the integrity of the county budget and avoids the property tax hikes that would likely result from the Republican plan.

	Final Report (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		The bill would have allowed a growth factor through which the maximum mills that could be levied by cities, counties, and park districts would have been tied to the consumer price index.
		The commission recommended House Bill No. 1024, which consolidated several special county levies into the county general fund levy that may not exceed 134 mills and which allowed the voters of a county to refer the question of consolidating the levies to a vote of the qualified electors of the county.
		The bill provided the three branch offices to administer motor vehicle registration programs would be operated by the country treasurer of each county and the Department of Transportation was responsible for paying the training costs of the personnel necessary to implement the pilot project.

		With this bill, the disbursal of public safety funds from sales tax revenues will be determined based on the population within each police district.
		Levy has yet to sign or veto the bill because he doesn’t like the idea of determining revenue distribution based on population.
		With Levy’s dislike for the bill stemming from using population to determine funding, Schneiderman has explained that there is a way to disburse funds equally using zip codes.

		The bill is usually divided into two installments and tells you how much in substantial penalties you will pay if you are late.
		Moreover, the bills can be downright confusing so it is worthwhile for every property owner to review their bill and to understand the various charges.
		Your tax bill might also reflect (most do) a smaller additional amount for school bonds or other so-called "general obligation bonds." These taxes to repay voter approved debt will appear every year until the bonds are paid off (usually between ten and thirty years).

	NewStandard: 9/8/96
		Levy's name will be on the Bills' Wall of Fame because he has quietly earned the respect of those around him, from cancer patients across the country to the equipment manager along the sidelines.
		Levy is 71, having fibbed for eight years about his age before getting found out last season.
		When the Bills' public relations people were designing the cover of this season's media guide, they decided Levy's picture should be on it, even though they had to sneak the book to the printer.

	House passes school levy bill; EFF comments
		The supermajority requirement was established as a safeguard for property owners, since levy dollars come from property taxes.
		The people who want to change the levy elections to a simple majority argue that members of Congress and the legislature are elected with a simple majority: Why not school levies, they ask?
		Voter turn-out is largest in November, and it would cost far less to put a levy election on the same ballot.

	Parking Space Levy Amendment Bill - 04/05/2000 - 2R
		The revenue collected from the levy was to be used to finance the development of infrastructure to encourage the use of public transport to and from those districts.
		The importance of public transport improvement projects undertaken with the levy funds has increased markedly since 1992 as attention is focused on public transport as a key means to improving the environment and air quality in particular.
		The levy is considered a very small component of the cost of car parking in the areas it covers and makes an important contribution to minimising congestion on the roads.

	HB105 - SCHOOL DISTRICT OPERATATING LEVY - Copeland, Gene
		PROPONENTS: Supporters say that The three districts affected by this bill were excluded from the $2.75 minimum levy because of the effects of power plants on the assessed valuation of the districts.
		Another of the districts approved a Proposition C rollback to compensate for shrinking of state and federal funding because of a declining student population but is now within a few cents of needing a small increase.
		The bill would allow the school board in each of these districts to vote to levy up to $2.75, the same authority given to other districts under SB 380, providing them some flexibility to deal with their unique situation.

		Passage of Levy's bill by the Legislature would require a special election be held within 90 days from when the vacancy occurs.
		Levy cited instances where vacancies have been filled by appointment.

	Australian DemocratsAustralian Democrat Speeches
		The purpose of this bill is to collect the $10 levy charged to each ticket until some percentage of Ansett employee entitlements are satisfied, up to a limit of $500 million.
		This bill is a product of exactly the sort of poll driven legislation that has produced the appalling and antidemocratic migration bills we have been debating this week.
		The Democrats support this bill, with amendments, because the employees of Ansett should not be the ones made to suffer for the failures of the corporation and its parent companies and the failures of the Australian government in its determination that the best government is no government.

		This substitute repeals the provision in the definition of operating levy for school purposes that prohibits using the calculated levy when a school district's actual operating levy exceeds its calculated levy.
		There is a "notch" in the computation of the calculated levy that under certain circumstances will keep a district that has raised its levy from realizing the full value of state aid on the increased levy.

	Dáil Éireann - Volume 440 - 24 March, 1994 - Industrial Training (Apprenticeship Levy) Bill, 1993: From the Seanad.
		We are hidebound by the fact that the Bill is so narrow that it merely deals with the question of whether employers ought to be required to make a contribution to the fairly significant costs of apprenticeship.
		Because the Bill was prepared before my appointment to this Department and it was a good idea to establish a standard based system we wanted to proceed with it.
		Miss Quill: The Bill, as initiated, was short and specific but the Minister was good enough to broaden the discussion and the Bill is better for it.

	Paul Levy: Trademark bill threatens right to criticize companies [Politech]
		But under the bill, the exceptions would expressly be limited to dilution by blurring and dilution by tarnishment "under this subsection." Thus, the protections for fair use and non-commercial use would no longer extend to suits for infringement of unregistered trademarks.
		In this regard, it should be noted that although the Lanham Act has a separate subsection that allows a defense of fair use, section 33(b)(4), that section is expressly limited to defenses against claimed infringement of REGISTERED trademarks (which can be pursued under section 32 of the Act).
		It is quite likely that the slogan would be a famous trademark even under the new definition of famousness; a strong case could be made for likelihood of blurring; and although the use is non-commercial, that alone would not be a protection from the dilution cause of action.

		Where else could we say that a Bill, which started as a minute matter dealing with a levy, a gleam in some Revenue inspector's eye, has provoked such debate and unity in a discursive and cautionary sense and through advice to me in general.
		The Bill started out as a minute item but it has made a major contribution to the development of the way we train our young people for the future.

	T-Bill Levy Still in Preparation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Yields climbed upward Sunday at the Russian government's first treasury bill auction of the year, although a new 15 percent tax did not apply to the issue because the Finance Ministry has not yet issued instructions for its collection.
		Igor Koftun, deputy head of the securities and financial markets department in the Finance Ministry, said Sunday that the 15 percent levy, theoretically effective from Jan. 1, will probably be collected from T-bill dealers at the time when the notes are redeemed -- a provision that would have the greatest effect on secondary market trading.
		The 15 percent levy was part of a package of revenue bills approved by the State Duma late last month, but the law still awaits a presidential signature, and the Finance Ministry and Tax Service have not yet prepared instructions on who exactly must pay the tax.

		The two present Bills that form part of the Government's waterfront package are connected to a series of events which have divided the community not so much on the need for waterfront reform but over the means by which such reform has been pursued.
		The present Bill forms part of a concerted push by the Government to secure a series of objectives which may generically be described as 'waterfront reform'.

		If the tourism industry is to be hit with yet another levy, that levy should only apply for the period necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was created—in this case, to be able to meet the costs associated with the special employee entitlements schemes for Ansett group employees.
		Even when the minister is satisfied that the purpose of the bill has been met, he or she can direct the levy to be paid to `a scheme prescribed by the regulations' of the legislation.
		And—surprise, surprise—the bill states in clause 23(2) that consolidated revenue is an appropriate scheme for the minister to nominate.

	Education (Export Education Levy) Amendment Bill - Green Party (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		When the export education levy was first proposed a number of years ago, my colleague Nandor Tanczos expressed considerable concern that it would be used for purposes not related to the provision of export education and that concern remained with us during the progress of this bill.
		Increasingly schools are using the fees they gather from international students to pay for the education of their general populations because the Government funding is so pathetic that it completely fails to cover the basic costs for schools and their running.
		But, in the end, the bill restricts the use of the levy to those issues relating to international students only, and to their care and protection when the institutions to which they have paid their fees go bust.
