Governor Baker has initiated a comprehensive review of all regulations issued by state agencies within the Executive Branch of Massachusetts government through Executive Order 562. Each state agency is currently in the process of reviewing its regulations to be sure those regulations are clear and concise and not unduly burdensome.As part of this “Regulatory Reform” initiative, the Department of Revenue (DOR) has scheduled two, two-hour Listening Sessions. These sessions are intended to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on any of the regulations under the jurisdiction of DOR. These Listening Sessions are in addition to the statutory regulatory process for the issuing, amending, or repealing of a regulation, which includes a public comment period.
We encourage the public to provide comments on any DOR regulation. Please note that each session has a special focus (see Listening Session descriptions below). Agency representatives will be present to hear your comments.
DOR Listening Sessions will be held as follows:
Session 1, December 3, 2015, 2:30 PM – 4:30 PM
Massachusetts Department of Revenue
100 Cambridge Street, 2nd floor
Boston, MA 02114
Highlighted Topics: Business Taxes
Session 2, January 7, 2016, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

DOR greatly appreciates your input in this review process. If you are unable to attend either of the listening sessions and would like to send us your comments and/or suggestions, please email DOR at RulesandRegs@dor.state.ma.us.
Additionally, we invite you to participate in our regulation survey posted on the Department’s website.
