1. There is hereby established in the state treasury a revolving fund known as the “Statutory Revision Fund”, and which shall receive funds paid to the revisor of statutes for sales of the revised statutes of Missouri or any supplement thereto, whether in printed, electronic, magnetic, or other form and funds received for any other service for which there is a fee charged by the committee on legislative research. The committee on legislative research shall determine the form and any fees or charges for the statutes or services. The state treasurer shall be custodian of the fund and shall make disbursements from the fund for enhancing or producing the electronic form of the revised statutes in a computer readable form, enhancing the electronic^* processing of computerized legislative drafting and such other purposes authorized by the joint committee on legislative research upon appropriation by the general assembly. Moneys in the fund may also be used at the direction of the committee on legislative research to provide the revised statutes of Missouri and any supplement thereto to public libraries of this state in a computer readable format for use by patrons of the libraries.

2. Any unexpended balance in the fund at the end of any biennium not to exceed twice the cost of providing the annual supplement to the revised statutes of Missouri is exempt from the provisions of section 33.080 relating to transfer of unexpended balances to the ordinary revenue fund.
