Session Laws 2007-323, s. 31.18(e), provides: "This section does not affect the authority of the Department of Revenue under G.S. 105-130.6 , G.S. 105-130.16 , or any other statute to require a corporation to file a consolidated return or to determine the net income of a corporation properly attributable to this State. The General Assembly finds that an alternative method of addressing a corporation's attempt to use a real estate investment trust to shift income between entities and avoid State taxes is to require a captive REIT, as defined in G.S. 105-130.12 as amended by this section, to add to its federal taxable income the dividend paid deduction otherwise allowed under the Internal Revenue Code."
