The entity or entities selected to operate the program shall receive grants in amounts specified by the department. The grants may include operating costs, including, but not limited to, development of the information management system, necessary to administer the program.

Notwithstanding any other law, all interest derived from the deposit and investment of moneys in the fund shall be credited to the fund.
