The Treasurer shall hold any repaid advances in the Operating Reserve Fund subject to further advances to the Medical System Corporation. The money in the Operating Reserve Fund may not revert to the general treasury at the end of the State’s fiscal year, and all investment earnings in such Fund shall become a part of stem Corporation.
