(2) Upon request of the Louisiana Quota District 21 of the Quota International Organization, the department shall calculate the number of Quota International prestige license plates sold and total monies collected from the sale of the plates in each Quota district within the state.

(3) The monies received from the royalty fees by Quota International shall be used solely to provide scholarships for students who major in the field of education to attend a Louisiana college or university.

D. The secretary shall promulgate rules and regulations in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act as are necessary to implement the provisions of this Section, including but not limited to the design of the plate and the disbursement of monies received from the sale of such plate.
