The commissioner shall at least on a quarterly basis determine the amount of fees in such account collected on behalf of and due and owing to other jurisdictions which are members of the agreement and certify the same to the comptroller. The comptroller shall then pay to the appropriate official of each such jurisdiction the amount of fees due to each such jurisdiction.4.
