§  195-q.  Bell  jar  compliance  and enforcement. In the case of bell
  jars, the  licensee,  upon  filing  financial  statements  of  bell  jar
  operations,  shall  also tender to the board a sum in the amount of five
  percent of the net proceeds as defined in this paragraph, from the  sale
  of  bell jar tickets, seal cards, merchandise board, and coin boards, if
  any, for that portion of license period covered by such  statement.  For
  the  purposes  of this section, "net proceeds" shall mean the difference
  between the ideal handle from the sale of bell jar tickets, seal  cards,
  merchandise boards, and coin boards less the amount of money paid out in
  prizes and less the purchase price of the bell jar deal, seal card deal,
  merchandise board deal, or coin board deal. Additionally, a credit shall
  be  permitted  against  the  net  proceeds fee tendered to the board for
  unsold tickets of the bell jar deal as long as the unsold  tickets  have
  the  same  serial  number  as the tickets for which the fee is rendered.
  Such unsold tickets must be kept on file by the selling organization for
  inspection by the board for a period of one year following the date upon
  which the relevant financial statement was received by the board.
1. One-half of one  percent  of  such  fee  received  from  authorized
  volunteer  fire  companies shall be paid to the New York state emergency
  services  revolving  loan  account  established  pursuant   to   section
  ninety-seven-pp of the state finance law.
2.  The  state  gaming  commission shall submit to the director of the
  division of the budget an annual plan that details the amount  of  money
  the  state  gaming  commission  deems  necessary to maintain operations,
  compliance and enforcement of the provisions of  this  article  and  the
  collection  of  the  license  fee authorized by this section. Contingent
  upon the approval of the director of the division  of  the  budget,  the
  state  gaming  commission  shall pay into an account, to be known as the
  bell jar collection account, under the joint custody of the  comptroller
  and  the  state  gaming  commission,  the  total  amount of license fees
  collected pursuant to this section. With the approval of the director of
  the division of the budget,  monies  to  be  utilized  to  maintain  the
  operations  necessary  to enforce the provisions of this article and the
  collection of the license fee imposed by this section shall be paid  out
  of  such account on the audit and warrant of the comptroller on vouchers
  certified or approved by the director of the division of the  budget  or
  his  or her duly designated official. Those monies that are not utilized
  to maintain operations necessary  to  enforce  the  provisions  of  this
  article and the collection of the license fee authorized by this section
  shall  be  paid out of such amount on the audit and warrant of the state
  comptroller and shall be credited to the general fund.
