    (b) (1) For purposes of paragraph (a) of  this  section,  all  trusts,
  custodial  accounts,  annuities,  insurance contracts, monies, assets or
  interests established as part of,  and  all  payments  from,  either  an
  individual  retirement account plan which is qualified under section 408

  individual  who is the settlor of and depositor to such account plan, or
  (ii) a self-employed individual,  or  (iii)  a  partner  of  the  entity

  corporation sponsoring the retirement or other plan.
    (2) All trusts, custodial accounts,  annuities,  insurance  contracts,
  monies,  assets,  or  interests  described  in  subparagraph one of this
  paragraph shall be conclusively presumed to be spendthrift trusts  under
  this  section  and  the  common  law  of  the  state of New York for all
  purposes, including, but not limited to,  all  cases  arising  under  or
  related  to  a  case  arising under sections one hundred one to thirteen
  hundred thirty of title eleven of the United States Bankruptcy Code,  as

    (c) A provision in any trust, other than a  testamentary  trust  or  a
  trust  which meets the requirements of subparagraph two of paragraph (b)

  services  law  and  of  the regulations implementing such clauses, which
  provides directly or  indirectly  for  the  suspension,  termination  or
  diversion  of the principal, income or beneficial interest of either the

  creator's spouse should apply for medical assistance or require medical,
  hospital or nursing care or long term custodial, nursing or medical care

  without regard to the irrevocability of the trust  or  the  purpose  for
  which the trust was created.
    (d)  A  disposition in trust shall not be considered to be for the use
  of the creator under paragraph (a) of this  section  by  reason  of  the
  trustee's  authority  to  pay trust principal to the creator pursuant to
  section 7-1.11 of this article. Nor shall  a  disposition  in  trust  be
  considered  to be for the use of the creator under paragraph (a) of this

  any  other  provision of law to pay or reimburse the creator for any tax
  on trust income or trust principal that is payable by the creator  under
  the  law imposing such tax or to pay any such tax directly to the taxing
  authorities. No creditor of a trust creator shall be entitled  to  reach
  any  trust  property based on the discretionary powers described in this
  paragraph.
