Origin:

Purpose
Prior to H.B. 2202, 83rd Leg., R.S., $8 was deposited to the State Highway Fund 0006 to reimburse the department for administrative costs. The remaining amount was deposited to an account in the General Revenue Fund if the sponsor nominated a state agency to receive the money. If no agency was nominated, the remainder went to the State Highway Fund 0006. H.B. 2202 re-allocated the Fund 0006 amounts to the new Department of Motor Vehicles Fund, which was not created per funds consolidation (H.B. 6). Therefore those allocations go to General Revenue 0001.
H.B. 7, 83rd Leg., R.S. changed deposit of license plate revenue created under Transportation Code, Subchapter G from the GR-dedicated account to the License Plate Trust Fund (0802). Beginning 9-01-13, Subchapter G license plate revenue was deposited to License Plate Trust Fund (0802).
