A. (1) Subject to the exceptions contained in Article VII, Section 9 of the Constitution of Louisiana, all money received by the commission from fees or other self-generated sources shall be deposited immediately upon receipt in the state treasury and shall be credited to the Bond Security and Redemption Fund.
(2) After a sufficient amount is allocated from that fund to pay all obligations secured by the full faith and credit of the state which become due and payable within any fiscal year, the treasurer, prior to placing the remaining funds in the State General Fund, shall pay an amount equal to the total amount of funds paid into the state treasury by the commission into a special fund which is hereby created in the state treasury and designated as the Structural Pest Control Commission Fund. The monies in the Structural Pest Control Commission Fund shall be used solely for the programs and purposes of the commission and only in the amounts appropriated each year by the legislature.
B. Out of the monies appropriated each year to the commission, the commission shall allocate at least thirty thousand dollars to the Louisiana State University Agricultural Experiment Station for research. The allocation shall be made at least biannually. The commission shall appoint a committee composed of the commissioner or his designee, the chancellor of the Louisiana State University Agricultural Center or his designee, the director of the Louisiana State University Agricultural Experiment Station or his designee, the president of the Louisiana Structural Pest Control Association, the executive director of the Louisiana Pest Control Association, and three licensed pest control operators.
