(e) The amount so designated by the individual on the income tax return form or schedule shall be deducted from the tax refund to which such individual is entitled, or the amount so designated may be added to the individual's payment of taxes due and shall not be included in the general revenue of the State.

(f) From time to time as determined by the Delaware State Clearinghouse Committee, the Delaware Juvenile Diabetes Foundation shall submit a detailed report to members of the Committee of revenues, expenditures and program measures for the fiscal period in question.  Such report shall also be sufficiently descriptive in nature so as to be concise and informative.  The Committee may cause any person employed by or associated with the Delaware Juvenile Diabetes Foundation to appear before the Committee and to answer such questions as the Committee may require.
