(d) Revenue from the assessments under this section shall be deposited into the fund. Money in the fund must be used for community services for persons with developmental disabilities.
(e) Money in the fund at the end of a state fiscal year does not revert to the state general fund.
(f) If federal financial participation to match the assessments in subsection (a) becomes unavailable under federal law, the authority to impose the assessments terminates on the date that the federal statutory, regulatory, or interpretive change takes effect.
