Two hundred dollars ($200) of each such license fee collected shall be paid into the special fund provided by Section 5-2A-20 and used in the supervision and examination of such licensees; provided further, that in fiscal year 1986, two hundred fifty dollars ($250) of each such license fee collected shall be paid into the special fund provided in Section 5-2A-20 and used in the supervision and examination of such licensees; provided further, that in fiscal year 1987, three hundred dollars ($300) of each such license fee collected shall be paid into the special fund provided by Section 5-2A-20 and used in the supervision and examination of such licensees; provided further, that in fiscal year 1988, three hundred fifty dollars ($350) of each such license fee collected shall be paid into the special fund provided in Section 5-2A-20 and used in the supervision and examination of such licensees; and provided further, that in fiscal year 1989 and thereafter, all such license fees collected shall be paid into the special fund provided by Section 5-2A-20 and used in the supervision and examination of such licensees.

No refunds for the current or any prior or subsequent state tax year or any portion of the tax levied by said Chapter 16 shall be made on the ground that the license fee levied by this section was not credited upon or deducted from the tax levied by said Chapter 16, and no civil action shall lie to enforce any claim for such refund.
