(a) The taxes, interest, and penalties imposed by this article and collected or received by the commissioner shall be deposited daily with such responsible banks, banking houses or trust companies, as may be designated by the comptroller, to the credit of the comptroller in trust for the metropolitan transportation authority. An account may be established in one or more of such depositories. Such deposits will be kept separate and apart from all other money in the possession of the comptroller. The comptroller shall require adequate security from all such depositories. Of the total revenue collected or received under this article, the comptroller shall retain such amount as the commissioner may determine to be necessary for refunds under this article. The commissioner is authorized and directed to deduct from the amounts it receives under this article, before deposit into the trust accounts designated by the comptroller, a reasonable amount necessary to effectuate refunds of appropriations of the department to reimburse the department for the costs incurred to administer, collect and distribute the taxes imposed by this article. (b) On or before the twelfth and twenty-sixth day of each succeeding month, after reserving such amount for such refunds and deducting such amounts for such costs, as provided for in subsection (a) of this section, the commissioner shall certify to the comptroller the amount of all revenues so received during the prior month as a result of the taxes, interest and penalties so imposed. The amount of revenues so certified shall be paid over by the fifteenth and the final business day of each succeeding month from such account into the mobility tax trust account of the metropolitan transportation authority financial assistance fund established pursuant to section ninety-two-ff of the state finance law, for payment, pursuant to appropriations by the legislature to the metropolitan transportation authority finance fund established pursuant to section twelve hundred seventy-h of the public authorities law.
