To amend chapter 304, RSMo, by adding thereto one new section relating to the Missouri head injury advisory council.
Section A. Chapter 304, RSMo, is amended by adding thereto one new section, to be known as section 304.028, to read as follows:
304.028. 1. There is hereby created in the state treasury for use by the Missouri Head Injury Advisory Council a fund to be known as the "Head Injury Fund". All judgments collected pursuant to this section, federal grants, private donations and any other moneys designated for the head injury fund shall be deposited in the fund. Moneys deposited in the fund shall, upon appropriation by the general assembly to the office of administration, be received and expended by the council for the purpose of transition and integration of medical, social and educational services or activities for purposes of outreach and short-term supports to enable individuals with traumatic head injury and their families to live in the community, including counseling and mentoring the families. Notwithstanding the provisions of section 33.080, RSMo, to the contrary, any unexpended balance in the head injury fund at the end of any biennium shall not be transferred to the general revenue fund.
2. Any person who violates a speed limit law pursuant to sections 304.009 to 304.011 shall have a judgment entered against the defendant in favor of the head injury fund, in the amount of two dollars and fifty cents. Any person who is convicted of an intoxication-related offense, as defined by section 577.023, RSMo, shall have a judgment entered against the defendant in favor of the head injury fund, in the amount of two dollars and fifty cents.
3. The judgments collected pursuant to this section shall be paid into the state treasury to the credit of the head injury fund created in this section. Any court clerk receiving funds pursuant to judgments entered pursuant to this section shall collect and disburse such amounts as provided in sections 488.010 to 488.020, RSMo.
