(c) The Department of Finance may, whenever it deems it necessary for the proper enforcement of this chapter, provide that a lessee shall file returns and pay directly to the Department of Finance any tax imposed under this chapter at such time as returns are required to be filed and payment made by the persons required to collect the tax.
