There is hereby created in the State Treasury an Education Trust Fund Budget Stabilization Fund and an Education Trust Fund Capital Fund. Any monetary interest which accrues in the Education Trust Fund Budget Stabilization Fund shall be retained in the fund from year to year and shall be subject only to the provisions of this chapter. On or before November 15 of each fiscal year, if the total revenues deposited into the Education Trust Fund during the immediately preceding fiscal year exceed the fiscal year appropriation cap for the immediately preceding fiscal year, the excess shall be transferred to the Education Trust Fund Rainy Day Account until the account has been repaid in full. If the account has been repaid in full, any excess remaining shall be transferred to the Education Trust Fund Budget Stabilization Fund created in this chapter. The transfers to the Education Trust Fund Budget Stabilization Fund shall be made until the Fund reaches an amount which equals 20 percent of the then current year's appropriations from the Education Trust Fund. After the balance in the Education Trust Fund Budget Stabilization Fund reaches a total of 20 percent, any excess remaining shall be distributed to the Education Trust Fund Capital Fund.
