(ii) The Division of Finance shall deposit interest or other earnings derived from investment of account money into the General Fund.       (d) Upon appropriations from the Legislature, money from the account created in Subsection (6)(a) shall be used by the state fire marshal solely to support processing, testing, enforcement, and oversight activities under this part.       (7)   (a) If a manufacturer has certified a cigarette pursuant to this section, and thereafter makes any change to the certified cigarette that is likely to alter its compliance with the reduced cigarette ignition propensity standards required by this part, that cigarette shall not be sold or offered for sale in this state until the manufacturer:   (i) retests the cigarette in accordance with the testing standards set forth in Section 53-7-403; and     (ii) maintains records of that retesting as required by Section 53-7-403.       (b) Any altered cigarette which does not meet the performance standard set forth in Section 53-7-403 may not be sold in this state.      Amended by Chapter 216, 2008 General Session
