(a) The tax administrator may, after July 15 of each year, compile a list of all limited liability partnerships that have failed to pay any state fees and/or taxes for one year after the fees and/or taxes became due and payable, and the failure is not the subject of a pending appeal.

(b) With respect to any information provided by the division of taxation to the secretary of state’s office pursuant to this chapter, the secretary of state, together with the employees or agents thereof, shall be subject to all state and federal tax confidentiality laws applying to the division of taxation and the officers, agents, and employees thereof, and which restrict the acquisition, use, storage, dissemination, or publication of confidential taxpayer data.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the notice of revocation may state as the basis for revocation that the taxpayer has failed to pay state fees and/or taxes to the division of taxation. However, the secretary of state’s office must otherwise protect all state and federal tax information in its custody as required by subsection (b) of this section and refrain from disclosing any other specific tax information.
