which is so collected and not used for the purposes of this chapter
shall be returned to the processors from whom it was received for

40935. If the director determines, as to any money heretofore or
hereafter collected as inspection and certification fees, that the

but shall remain in the Department of Food and Agriculture Fund and
be available for expenditure for the purposes of this chapter in any
subsequent year.
